[Bug 45693] Re: Tools/Read Mail calls wrong mail window.

[Pascal De Vuyst]

Thanks for investigating this.
Using "mozilla-thunderbird -mail %s" command under System > Preferences > Preferred Applications > Mail reader > custom indeed solves this bug.
But after changing this and clicking Tools > New Message in Firefox both the folder window and the compose window of Thunderbird appear. Only the compose windows should appear in this case.
Changing the Preferred Application command to just "mozilla-thunderbird %s" solves this!

A user should not have to alter this command to make firefox work,
instead gnome-default-applications-properties should use the "mozilla-
thunderbird %s" command by default. This is also related to bug #38730.

Reassigning to control-center.

** Changed in: mozilla-thunderbird (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: mozilla-thunderbird => gnome-control-center

** Changed in: firefox (Ubuntu)
Sourcepackagename: firefox => None

** Changed in: Ubuntu
       Status: Confirmed => Unconfirmed
