I have installed the latest version of FireFox directly from
www.mozilla.org and ThunderBird as a Mandriva package.
When i click on email links i am forwarded to Evolution (which i was
using in the past).
Does anybody know how i can make FireFox to be aware of TunderBird
and automatically use this Email agent for sending emails through the
browser?
Thanks, Ramin
If you're using Gnome, run: gnome-control-center => Preferred
Applications => change to suit.
Or, you can add the settings to Firefox itself, so that your favourite
email client will be called no matter which desktop environment you're
using at the time - Xfce, Gnome, KDE or one of the others.
To make sure that mailto links open Thunderbird, type about:config in
the Firefox address bar. Then, right-click anywhere in the list, and add
the following new string:
network.protocol-handler.app.mailto
with value /usr/bin/mozilla-thunderbird
Also, so that a Thunderbird compose window opens (rather than profile
manager) when Thunderbird is already open:
As root, open Kwrite (or whatever text editor you feel comfortable
with), and open file /usr/bin/mozilla-thunderbird
Add the line:
run_moz="$moz_libdir/run-mozilla.sh" as line 112, so that lines 108 -
117 read:
if [ $found = 0 ]; then
# Check default compile-time libdir
if [ -x "$moz_libdir/run-mozilla.sh" ]; then
dist_bin="$moz_libdir"
run_moz="$moz_libdir/run-mozilla.sh"
else
echo "Cannot find mozilla runtime directory. Exiting."
exit 1
fi
fi
Save, and close the file. All done!
