User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 6.0; de; rv:1.9.1) Gecko/20090616 Firefox/3.5 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729) Build Identifier: Thunderbird 2.0.0.22 After upgrading Thunderbird 2.0.0.21 to 2.0.0.22 the right-click options on files like pics, docs, etc. with "sent to --> email" always tries to open MS Outlook. We checked: Thunderbird is standard e-mail software so that seems not to be the cause. This problem occured on 3 of 3 Windows Vista Ultimate Service Pack 2 PCs after the upgrade to 2.0.0.22. Scenario: - Open windows explorer (for files, not IE) - Choose e.g. jpeg or doc - right click on file and choose "send to --> email" - function will either not work, open MS outlook or if you open ms outlook the composition window of ms outlook will appear insteadt of Thunderbird Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: Scenario: - Open windows explorer (for files, not IE) - Choose e.g. jpeg or doc - right click on file and choose "send to --> email" - function will either not work, open MS outlook or if you open ms outlook the composition window of ms outlook will appear insteadt of Thunderbird Actual Results: see "steps to reproduce" Expected Results: Thunderbird e-mail composition window opens with chosen file attached 2 PCs got firefox 3.5 rc2 installed, the other PC has got firefox 3 latest version installed
