Re: Making Firefox default for Thunderbird links
For all users of your computer:
Using sudo with all these comands:
# cd /usr/lib/mozilla-thunderbird/defaults/pref
# echo 'pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/usr/bin/firefox");' >> all-thunderbird.js
# echo 'pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "/usr/bin/firefox");' >> all-thunderbird.js
# echo 'pref("network.protocol-handler.app.ftp", "/usr/bin/firefox");' >> all-thunderbird.js
Now, making the integration between firefox and thunderbird:
# cd /usr/lib/mozilla-firefox/defaults/pref
# echo 'pref("network.protocol-handler.app.mailto", /usr/bin/mozilla-thunderbird"");' >> firefox.js
Reestart your browser and your mail client.
Verify the installation directorios of your firefox and your thunderbird.
I hope it helps.
Hugs!

Re: Making Firefox default for Thunderbird links
On my system, just doing the above did not have any effect on links in Thunderbird. Maybe that just affects KDE apps.Originally posted by devnulljp
All that was necessary to get Thunderbird to link to Firefox was to execute this in a terminal:
update-alternatives --config x-www-browser
and then select /usr/bin/firefox.
