Configuring preferred web browser with Icedove
Hello List How does one configure Icedove (Thunderbird) to use the system's default browser. My system's default browser is Opera, but Icedove will always call up Konqueror and I cannot see any obvious way to change that ... even advanced config doesn't seem to show any options. I'm using Squeeze up-to-date. Thanks AG -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to debian-user-requ...@lists.debian.org with a subject of unsubscribe. Trouble? Contact listmas...@lists.debian.org
