[Bug 38271] Re: crashes when trying to open ftp.freebsd.org links from RSS reader

[Nick Barkas]

I tried this with the version of thunderbird included in feisty, and
could not reproduce. The original rss feed I had trouble with (for
FreeBSD security advisories) seems to give http URLs now. I tried
copying the rdf file to my own machine and changing the URLs to ftp, and
thunderbird didn't crash when I clicked on them. However, it didn't open
the links either; nothing happened when I clicked on them. It may be
that the rdf file I created was broken in some way, but I'm not sure.

In any case I can no longer cause the crash. It would be easier to test
if I could find another rss feed that links to ftp URLs.
