... also, gnome-gmail 1.7.2 will offer to configure itself as the
preferred application, when launched from the Internet menu. This was
added for Fedora, which removed the Preferred Applications dialog.
I agree that the control-center fix is preferable. Ideally, gnome-gmail
would have no UI.

The patched gnome-gmail still has two problems which you may want to
address here. When enabled, the file browser does not have an 'email'
choice in the "Send To..." transport options, and there remains a
"Configure Email..." entry in a top menu, which launches Evolution. Both
behaviors are new.

This also affects other mail applications like gnome-gmail (bug #729357)
and desktop-webmail since neither can set themselves as the default mail
application - at the moment there is a patch for gnome-gmail in the

The patch is a backport of the GNOME 3.0 panel.
The XML file shipped by Firefox is legacy, and I'll remove it for the
