Details

When clicking on links in the UI, if the browser (I'm suing Firefox as default) is closed, the link opens properly. If the browser is already open, the link gets opened in a new Tab inside Thunderbird, and a dialog error appears.

This happens when trying to click on Get involved or Make a Donation in the About Dialog on Daily.

Firefox dialog error:

Firefox is already running, but is not responding.
To open a new window, you must first close the existing Firefox process,
or restart your system.

Javascript error:
JavaScript error: https://donate.mozilla.org/api/polyfill.js?features=Event,CustomEvent,Promise&locale=en-US, line 3: EvalError: call to Function() blocked by CSP

How do you start TB? With -no-remote?

(In reply to Jorg K (GMT+2) from comment #1)

How do you start TB? With -no-remote?

The usual ./mach run command. Could that be the culprit?

Confirmed.
The mach run command actually runs TB with -no-remote.
I guess this can be marked as INVALID

That makes a duplicate of the bug that says that things don't work with -no-remote ;-)
