Here are its contents:
Do the files ~/.local/share/applications/userapp-Icedove-EGPMWX.desktop and userapp-Iceweasel-RYY0FY.desktop exist? If yes please post them. I assume they have broken content and need some specific transition in the packaging. As manual workaround I'd suggest to remove these .desktop files and the mimeapps.list. Afterwards I assume everything will work as expected. Firefox and Icedove/Thunderbird might ask you to make them the default apps. Assuming everything works I'd just disable that check. (Your whole *system* is probably configured correctly, but these programs don't realize this, and therefore want to be set as default in the *user session*. If you click Yes (make default) a file similar to your current mimeapps.list will be created in ~/.config/mimeapps.list (the other location is deprecated). I'd hope the new content is ok. Greets jre
