Gee! I have been tearing my hair out with Thunderbird since the latest
update.
It seems no matter what I do from my gnome2 Application Preferences to
tell TB to use my default browser, firefox, pretty much NOTHING happens
to links in email unless FF is already open.

This new desktop file you referenced here actually works -- well mostly.
It at least asks me to choose an app for links and says I can change it
through prefences -- well now I can once it's entered SOMETHING.
There seems to be NO way to add default app. GRRR!

OK, at least this is a start. I have NO idea why the 45.2 TB has caused
so much grief!
