Hello Markusd, Thank you for submitting this bug and reporting a problem with Thunderbird. You made this bug report in 2010 and there have been several versions of Ubuntu and Thunderbird since then. Could you confirm that this is no longer a problem and that we can close the ticket? Or, if it is still a problem, could you run the following (only once): apport-collect 663100 and upload the updated logs and and any other logs that are relevant for this particular issue. Thank you again for helping make Ubuntu and Thunderbird better.

[Desktop-packages] [Bug 663100] Re: Thunderbird starts Konqueror instead of Firefox when clicking to links in mails
I had a similar problem. Thunderbird (3) has options to set the application to use to open links. I had this set to the correct Firefox installed when I upgraded from 9.10 to 10.04. It did not work: links (http or https) would not open. IMO the bug is that there is more than one place to set the functionality for opening links: in this case, one place is in TB, and the other is via SystemSettingsPreferred Applications. In my case, at some distant time in the past I had set the Web Browser (and mail, too) to open a Custom path (to an older firefox which I wouldn't expect to work under 10.04). I think the correct solution would require a Gnome variant of TB to strip the ignored and deceptive configuration choice from TB, to be installed as the Ubuntu version. Either that, or only use the system preference as a fallback to application-specific preferences. -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/663100 Title: Thunderbird starts Konqueror instead of Firefox when clicking to links in mails Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: Binary package hint: thunderbird After the upgrade from ubuntu 10.04 to 10.10 Thunderbird starts Konqueror instead of Firefox when I click to a link in an email.
