Thanks! I'll file a bug for Ubuntu at: https://launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/gnome-control-center (capplets-data is part of that package & I see the '-mail %s' is also still in the Natty capplets-data gnome-default-applications.xml .deb). http://packages.ubuntu.com/natty/capplets-data > > The question is whether calling SeaMonkey like Thunderbird in the > mail-reader case, i.e. without an extra "-mail" or "-compose", would > produce a useful result. Using 'seamonkey %s' works. However, for the bug report I'll recommend '-compose %s' instead. Unfortunately, the https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Command_Line_Options doesn't provide much info, and the syntax rules (https://developer.mozilla.org/en/Command_Line_Options#Syntax_Rules) appear to not to be correct/complete for SeaMonkey. > > [1]: Use <http://packages.ubuntu.com/#search_contents> > [2]: <http://lists.opensuse.org/opensuse-commit/2007-04/msg00087.html> Thanks for those, particularly the opensuse link.

Gary Added note: Looking at the SeaMonkey source files I find multiple files still contain references to Thunderbird, example: /seamonkey210source/comm-1.9.1/mail/app-config.mk <quote> MOZ_THUNDERBIRD = 1 DEFINES += -DMOZ_THUNDERBIRD=1 </quote> and <quote> # Non-mac options PROGRAM = ../../../$(DIST)/bin/thunderbird$(BIN_SUFFIX) </quote> in the build.mk file in the same folder. Is this normal? _______________________________________________ support-seamonkey mailing list [email protected] https://lists.mozilla.org/listinfo/support-seamonkey
