This is odd-- I have been so happy this week because after a good year
of waiting, T-bird and Firefox finally interoperate seamlessly, with no
need for me to write scripts, edit prefs.js or anything of that nature.
What I wonder is:
1) do you have Thunderbird and Firefox set as the default email
client/browser in your desktop environment (if GNOME or KDE)?
2) what does mozilla-launcher itself say (what is the unknown browser
it's looking for)?
Mozilla-launcher is just a script, so open it up in a text editor and
look at it.
Hope this helps,
Holly

Try something like this...
$EDITOR ~/.thunderbird//prefs.js and add the following
lines
And add these lines
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.ftp", "/opt/firefox/firefox");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/opt/firefox/firefox");
user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "/opt/firefox/firefox");
Restart thunderbird and links in email should now open in firefox.

I'm have approximately the same problem, with Thunderbird instead
wanting to open links in mozilla-launcher. The problem is,
mozilla-launcher has the audacity to fail to open *anything*.
mozilla-laucher sits in /usr/libexec, giving the error "unknown browser"
when I attempt to launch it.
I tried editing prefs.js, but Thunderbird reverted prefs.js to its
previous state when I next started it up.
