What I did was extremely simple to do ... and I found the offending setting
on the first try.
Nevertheless, I checked that none of the others contributed in any way ...
all in less than
half an hour.
I've used the binary search on my 300kB .htaccess file; that's where it was
appropriate.
As often happens, Magic Banana's constructive suggestion solved the
Pesky-Popup
problem. I went to my .config file: cd /home/username/.config, then listed
its
contents. Next, I plodded through the list of files and directories, each
time
entering sudo mv filename filename.bak, followed by cli
Two attempts to eliminate the pesky sendmail popup weren't effective.
(1) A new username & login eliminates the pesky popup, but it also eliminates
access to all my files.
(2) I used "sudo mv libfm libfm-save" to hide the libfm folder. No effect.

Here's what's happening:
When I go to the menu item "Places" and select "Home Folder" from the file
menu,
after a delay of several seconds a new window appears. It's got "Write" in
the
title line, my file:///home/username/ folder as a file attachment, and my
email
and username from a legiti
Please note that I'm not "suggesting" anything, nor do I think it will be of
use in your issue. Basically, I think you've broken your system. Only a
complete reinstall will do th job.
It's just a friendly reminder that there's a nice little file manager out
there, now that you asked.
loldier suggested another file manager, xfe.
My observation: XFE is free of the present libfm "feature."
My other instances of TQ8 are also free of the libfm Home-click sendmail bug.
It's just the one exposed to Win10 during operation of the "new" T420.

XFE, X File Explorer, has no dependencies with Gnome. I've been using it a
lot in BSD.

Something like this has happened before:
https://trisquel.info/en/forum/home-folder-places-points-disk-usage-analyzer
but it went unresolved ...
I was poking around in ~/.config/dconf/user where it seems rather corrupted,
but in my other installations of Trisquel (both TQ7 and TQ8) "user" is

Update: I returned the Win-10 T420 for credit and set about solving the
pop-up email
problem.
Here's what didn't work: Move the profiles.ini file and gibberish.default

a safe place (to a folder I called IceDoveFiles in another HDD inside the
"old" T420)

Whenever I try to open a folder (right- or left-click) that pesky Icedove
send mail window
appears, trying to send that folder as an attachment. That's before I have
even started Icedove.
I installed a different file manager (PCManFM) and uninstalled the former
File Manager
(xfce.org) but
One of the email accounts in my newly migrated Icedove has gone rogue,
opening a
message-composing window whenever I click on a file with file manager.
It's just one of my accounts - with the correct name, title etc., but if I
wanted
to send a message, I would use webmail on the appropriate
