Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows NT 10.0) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/57.0.2987.133 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

When I click on any link within an email, nothing happens.


Actual results:

When I was in the email window and clicked on any link my browser (Chrome) did not open and, if the browser was already open, the link did not open in my browser.  No other window opened to show anything when the link was clicked on.  The cursor does change to indicate that I am over a link, however.  My computer was just updated to Thunderbird 52.0.  Everything worked normally before the Thunderbird update.  I went to Tools>Options>Attachments.  I wanted to see how html files are handled and was surprised to find that html is not an option as it was in previous versions.


Expected results:

I should have a window open in Chrome taking me to the link when I click on the link in the email.
