You have been subscribed to a public bug:
gnome-default-applications-properties, aka, "Preferred Applications" is
supposed to allow you to set a custom Mail Reader for those like myself
that use GMail for all email. However, when I click the drop-down box
(which includes "Evolution Mail Reader" and "custom") and choose custom,
it flashes the command window very briefly to enabled and then back to
disabled immediately, keeping Evolution Mail Reader as the set option.
It will not allow me to select custom as an option. As a side note, the
custom option under Web Browser is working just fine.
I'm running:
Description: Ubuntu intrepid (development branch)
Release: 8.10
In particular, I'm running an Intrepid Alpha 2 release upgraded now past
Alpha 3 via regular dist-upgrades.
I believe this is part of the gnome-control-center package:
gnome-control-center:
