Re: SOLVED! SM email not properly responding to FF mailto links
Hey y'all, I'm the maintainer of the ubuntuzilla repository. Here are my thoughts/ comments on the matter. (By the way, NoOp, it has been quite a while since ubuntuzilla was an autodownloader script. It is now an apt repository with .deb repacks of official mozilla binary builds.) So, speaking about what goes on with ubuntuzilla - all that is done is extract the binaries out of the mozilla-supplied tar.gz, and put them into a .deb. With seamonkey, the mozilla binaries go into /opt/ seamonkey/, a symlink is created from /usr/bin/seamonkey to /opt/ seamonkey/seamonkey, and an applications menu item in the form of a .desktop file is created in /usr/share/applications/seamonkey- mozilla-build.desktop, with the following content: [Desktop Entry] Encoding=UTF-8 Name=Mozilla Build of Seamonkey GenericName=Internet Suite Comment=Web Browser, Email/News Client, HTML Editor, IRC Client Exec=seamonkey %u Icon=seamonkey-mozilla-build Terminal=false X-MultipleArgs=false StartupNotify=true StartupWMClass=SeaMonkey Type=Application Categories=Network;WebBrowser;Email;WebDevelopment;IRCClient; There is nothing anywhere in the package (nothing that's added by the ubuntuzilla repack process, at any rate) that speficies the default command to use to compose a new message. I would be /mightily/ surprised if you see different behavior from installing manually into / home, by downloading from seamonkey website, and extracting into your home dir somewhere. It is quite likely, though, that the fault lies not with seamonkey itself, but with the preferred applications gnome applet, which has 'seamonkey -mail %s' as the default option, when it detects the presence of /usr/bin/seamonkey on the system. This is currently my best guess. The documentation on the gnome preferred application applet (/usr/bin/gnome-default-applications-properties binary) seems rather scant, and I don't have the time to go dig through the source package to figure out where it pulls the default values for known apps... but that's where I'd look. Hope this is at least somewhat helpful. -nanotube P.S. please CC me by email directly on any replies if you want to make sure I see them. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey

Not sure, but perhaps you can ask on: http://ubuntuforums.org/forumdisplay.php?f=251 I had been using Thunderbird up until I installed SeaMonkey. Thunderbird was handling the mailto: links correctly. And did you also install via Ubuntuzilla? If so, what was the switch? At that time, SeaMonkey was not in the list. After I instilled SeaMonkey, it was there, just the switches were incorrect. What ever adds SeaMonkey to the list of Gnome Preferred Applications, THAT needs to be updated to use the correct switches. Possibly. I typically run SeaMonkey from a /home folder, so I've not run into this problem previously. I just use 'Custom' and insert the path -compose %s or simply %s (the latter works just fine). However I do note that the SeaMonkey2 build from Joe also includes the '-mail' switch, so I'll ask him. The there *is* something in the build configurations that sets this as '-mail' default, then *perhaps* there is an issue. Unfortunately it would/will be most hard to debug as you'd have to query all those that built .deb packages from source. If you look at the link I previously referenced, you'll find that the '-mail' switch is proper for opening the mail client. The issue is pehaps that the '-mail' command does not recognise/honor the %s (see the GNOME desktop reference guide/docs for this). Again, that wouldn't be a SeaMonkey issue as the reference clearly states: -mail mailto_URL Start the Compose Message window for the given mailto_URL Thunderbird only. thunderbird -mail mailto:m...@isp.net?subject=hi As you can see, that (possibly) only works in Thunderbird. For SeaMonkey you'd need to use: ./seamonkey -compose mailto:m...@isp.net?subject=hi and that works just fine. Have a look at: http://kb.mozillazine.org/Default_mail_client http://kb.mozillazine.org/Default_mail_client#Linux_-_Gnome for methods to configure your desktop. Change your System|Preferences|Preferred Applications|Mail Reader|Custom| to include the path to SeaMonkey (if installed in a /home folder) or simply: 'seamonkey %s' or 'seamonkey -compose %s' if you've installed to the system (via Ubuntuzilla or otherwise). If you do not require SeaMonkey to be available for all users on your system I *highly* recommend just installing to a /home folder and running from there. You'll find that doing so is considerably easier safer. I would think that something in the SeaMonkey installation process adds SeaMonkey to the Preferred Applications list. Thus why I started with a bug against SeaMonkey. Perhaps. But again you'd need to check with whoever built the .deb packages to be certain. Is it a SeaMonkey bug, or is it a problem with how the package was built? Regarding your other post: were it not for the fact that the Ubuntu SeaMonkey maintainers can't seem to get their act together and still haven't backported the lucid fixes yet: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seamonkey/+bug/575160 [seamonkey 2.0 crashes with 'RenderBadPicture' diagnostics] Why would you suggest all of that grief over simply using the official Mozilla binaries via UbuntuZilla?!!?!? You obviously missed (and cut): I'd recommend that you just install via your distro repository were it not for the fact that the Ubuntu SeaMonkey maintainers can't seem to get their act together and still haven't backported the lucid fixes yet: I *don't* recommend that you install your distro version for the very reasons mentioned in: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/seamonkey/+bug/575160 I do however recommend that you use Joe's PPA (or install directly to a /home folder) rather than Ubuntuzilla. ___ support-seamonkey mailing list support-seamonkey@lists.mozilla.org https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
