Yes, there's also a box in XFCE settings that needs to be checked and I 
always do that.

Again from my notes:

"To prevent Firefox from stealing Thunderbird focus when cllicking on a 
link in an e-mail:

     XFCE Settings
     Window Manager Tweaks
     Focus
     Honor standard ICCCM focus hint     Leave this checked.
     Then check "Do nothing"

Stops Firefox from taking the Thunderbird window when a link is clicked on."

These settings usually work, changes I make routinely, and they work in F22.

I just thought I would mention it since it appears to be a new problem,

Thanks for responding,

Bob
