How to get Thunderbird to open from Firefox
In Mandriva free 2006 how do I get Thunderbird to open from Firefox? When I click on 'read mail' or 'send link' I get Evolution which I do not prefer. I've gone to 'Kmenu>configure desktop>components>components chooser>use a differant e-mail client' and set it to '/usr/bin/mozilla-thunderbird' yet Firefox still goes to Evoloution. What can I do to correct this?
