It looks like Natty has changed how Emailers are registered. They aren't in /usr/share/gnome-control-center/default-apps/gnome-default-applications.xml anymore, and the OS is ignoring the value of the gconf variable desktop->gnome->url-handlers->mailto->command. Must be a Unity thing. I'd be willing to look into it, if someone could provide a pointer.
v1.7.2, which has been released upstream, will offer to install itself as the Preferred Email application when it is launched (from the Applications->Internet menu). But, it does that using a configuration variable that is being ignored. This feels like "embrace and extend". -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Ubuntu Bugs, which is subscribed to Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/729357 Title: gnome-gmail doesn't work in current natty -- ubuntu-bugs mailing list ubuntu-bugs@lists.ubuntu.com https://lists.ubuntu.com/mailman/listinfo/ubuntu-bugs
