132394 - Links in email should open with Windows default browser

Status: VERIFIED DUPLICATE of bug 108455

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Jean-Sebastien Guay]

I would like to use Mozilla only for my email, since I prefer IE for Web 
browsing. So I set Mozilla Mail as my default email application, but kept IE as 
my default web browser. Links in email messages still open up in a Mozilla 
browser window. This should be fixed, so that they open in the Windows default 
browser.

This has probably been reported before, but I really really checked, and 
couldn't find it, I promise! :)

This is using Moz 0.9.9 (Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; en-US; 
rv:0.9.9) Gecko/20020311) downloaded around 16:00 EST March 20th. It was the 
same in every previous version I have ever had...
