Here is the technique I just used to make mailto links point from Firefox to Thunderbird. This is for Firefox 1.0 (don't know about any others):
1) Launch Firefox and view the configuration strings using the URL
about:config
2) using the field at the top, search for mailto
3) If you do NOT have network.protocol-handler.app.mailto (normally you don't), create it using these steps: a) right-click b) choose New --> String c) new string: network.protocol-handler.app.mailto d) new value: /usr/bin/mozilla-thunderbird
Thank you, Thank you for this, Tommy! This has been one of those quirky little things I've been unable to resolve using 2 or 3 gui tools, no luck. I applied your config fix and pow! a link on a Firefox page pops me up a T-bird compose window.
I >really< appreciate your passing on the tip! --Harvey
