 By the way. What file precisely does kmail/konqueror say it cannot find?

 derek


/var/temp/kdecache-rosemary\krun\0.427.0

The print is tiny in the box that comes up - but I think that's it.

Check kcontrol  Components  File Associations  text  html and push 
konqueror (or mozilla if you like) to the top of the list.

I had this problem when using Firefox to open URL's, The solution was to go to
SystemconfigurationKDEcomponentsFile associationstexthtml and edit the 
mozilla firefox entry by changing the application command from 

soundwrappet  /usr/bin/mozffremote

 to :-

/usr/bin/mozffremote %u

This fixes the problem until you do anything to update the menus when the 
command gets changed back, in order to fix this you need to make the same 
adjustment in usr/lib/menu/mozilla-firefox

Thanks - I checked the Thunderbird forums and it sems to be a problem in 
Thunderbird.  Scripts have been provided but I need to get my head 
around that a bit before trying to do it.

Thanks

Thanks - seems to be a problem in Tbird.  Have been to forums, now need 
to get my head around the scripts and how to actually do it.

select the html type, and in the right hand panel move konqueror to the top of
