Setting default e-mail client for Firefox

Postby CronoCloud » 14 Apr 2009, 02:05

YDL 6.1's Firefox seems to think it's a Gnome application or something so it uses the Gnome preferences for default e-mail client, even overriding what you might set via
Code: Select all
network.protocol-handler.app.mailto


in Firefox's about:config

So it invokes Evolution whenever you click on a mailto, very annoying, but calling:
Code: Select all
gnome-default-applications-properties


via a terminal, lets you set something else, Yay.
