    Howto: Configure Kmail as default mailer in Firefox

    Firefox uses evolution as it's default mailer. You can change it to Kmail (or as a matter of fact any other mailer) by doing the following:

    Open Firefox, clear the "http://...." field, write about:config and press <enter>.
    You will then have a page with all the internal settings of firefox.
    Right click on that page, you will have a menu. Choose the option New->Character chain
    On the prompt field write:

    network.protocol-handler.app.mailto

    Click Ok and again Ok on the next screen. The new config parameter as been created.

    Now to give it a value:

    Scroll down t'ill you find the newly created field and right click on it. You'll have another menu, choose the option Modify and when prompted for a value write kmail (or whatever else you use as mailer).
    Then just click OK and it's done.

    Hope it will be usefull for you.

    Best regards,

    CTRL-T for a new tab, and you can switch back and forth from this set of directions to the window to actually make the changes also.
