OK ... as you know this is a known bug ... please try this workaround:
add an executable script (e.g. /usr/local/bin/start-browser.sh):
#!/bin/sh
# set your preferred browser here
BROWSER=/usr/bin/x-www-browser
unset LD_LIBRARY_PATH
exec $BROWSER $@
... adapt your browser accordingly ...
and choose *manual* integration method when running:
# dpkg-reconfigure thunderbird
... then uncomment and adapt in /etc/thunderbird/global-config.js
like this:
/*
uncomment this if you want your browser configured as
your default by means of the debian alternatives mechanism
*/
pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http","/usr/local/bin/start-browser.sh");
pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https","/usr/local/bin/start-browser.sh");
... and let me know if it works.
btw, if there is already a backport of icedove ... use that one
... thunderbird 1.5.0.7 has outstanding security issues ... the
global-config.js path would then in /etc/icedove/global-config.js
... and
# dpkg-reconfigure icedove
obviously.
