User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; en-US; rv:1.7.5) Gecko/20041107 Firefox/1.0 Having installed Linux on my system, I am finding that Thunderbird no longer invokes the default browser (at present Konqueror) when a link is clicked. The OnClick method appears to be empty. Note that this does not apply to Windows versions of Thunderbird. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Send yourself an email containing a sure web address - eg, www.bbc.co.uk 2. Download mail including this nessage, and open it. 3. click the highlighted link Actual Results: Nothing Expected Results: A browser window should have opened - using the above address would have opened the BBC web site.
