Hi,
I have a problem finding how to get a pdf file to open with thunderbird without actually saving it to disk first.
This used to work find before my fedora core 6 upgrade but since this upgrade acroread stopped working. I basically don't need acroread so like to open the attachments with another helper in thunderbird. Thunderbird displays an error when I try to open a pdf, and says "change the association in your preferences". Unfortunately there no such thing in the thunderbird preferences.
I expect the file association doesn't need to be set in thunderbird but thunderbird also doesn't use my KDE settings either.
Does anyone know where I can set the file association ?
Do you have an /etc/mozilla-thunderbird/global-config.js file? If so, you should be able to set that file association there.
That file doesn't exist on any of my FC boxes.
Nor none of mine. My mistake, I was looking on a Ubuntu system instead of FC :-(
