    Kubuntu doc wrong , Can't find to setup Thunderbird my default email.

    Hi,
    I am trying to use Thunderbird as my default email in Kubuntu 6.06 (lastest upgrade). In the doc (https://help.ubuntu.com/6.06/kubuntu.../internet.html), it is said to change the preferred email client to Mozilla Thunderbird by doing this:
    1. Choose K-Menu->System Settings->User Account.
    2. In the User Account, click the Preferred Applications and click the Email Client and select the Use a different email client option.
    3. In the Use a different email client text box, type mozilla-thunderbird %s, then click Apply to save your settings.

    my problem is that I have no "Preferred Applications" to click (instruction 2 above)

    Any help would be greatly appreciate.
    Thanks

    Chris

      I found my settings here:
      K-menu -> System Settings -> KDE-components (at the top, far right)

        Yes I red that somewhere , maybe one of your post ;-), thanks , but I would like to do the more obvious first before putting my hands in some obscur files.
        I'd like to know if its a bug , than I should report it to Kubuntu.
