Hmmm, what version of Firefox are you running? I'm running 1.0 and
about:config with the "mailto" filter brings up three items, all of which are
boolean values and all start with "network.protocol-handler".
Are you using Gnome or KDE? Mine is KDE 3.3.1. Don't know if that would make
a difference for Firefox though.
I'm using xfce at the moment, although I used Gnome until recently. I
don't think the environment is relevant. Here are the three settings:
network.protocol-handler.app.mailto user set string /usr/bin/thunderbird
mozex.command.mailer user set string
thunderbird mailto:%A?Subject%S&Cc=%C&body=%B
Also,
mozex.intercept.mailto user set true
Since I had previously set these up for evolution, they were already in
user set status.
