I think the problem was that my desktop environment was doing something funky with the way it passed arguments to the mutt executable. After reading your e-mail I fixed it by telling Firefox to call a script for mailto: links, and the script is just: #!/bin/bash xfce4-terminal -e "mutt $@" Cheers, -- José María (Chema) Mateos || https://rinzewind.org/
