Well, I don't know much, but this is one thing I do know.  :-)

Put this line in your prefs.js file:

user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/usr/bin/firefox");

If you want Thunderbird to be able to open https links, also put

user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "/usr/bin/firefox");

in your prefs.js file.

prefs.js can be found in ~/.thunderbird/'some name'.default/

The 'some name' is whatever the .default directory is called on your
system.

Colleen
