Are you actually asking about how to have thunderbird launch an application different from parole? In thunderbird, have you gone to "Edit---Preferences" and then Attachments to see if there is a "content type" defined? If so, there should be an Action with a drop down where you can change it. -- Programming today is a race between software engineers striving to build bigger and better idiot-proof programs, and the Universe trying to produce bigger and better idiots.
