Another unrealted problem with my new computer. When I click on a URL in thunderbird mail, it does not open a web browser window. I know it is suposed to work, but I cannot find anyplace where the browser to use can be set, or indeed any setting about opening URL's
I did find the reverse, telling Firefox to send a link, it made me find 
the thunderbird binary in /usr and now it seems to be able to perform a 
"mail this page" request.
As you can imagine not being able to click on a URL makes notifications 
of new posts on web groups uncomfortable.
