Hi!

I use the "mozilla -remote" command to display links from my email client in
mozilla. Also, I am used to tabbed browsing. thus I want links from my email
client to be opened in a new tab.

currently, mozilla only supports links to be opened in the current window/tab or
in a new window ( mozilla -remote openURL(URL,new-window) ). 

How about adding following command:

  mozilla -remote openURL(URL,new-tab)

and have URL opened in a new tab
