Time to Look Another E-mail Client
I’ve been using Pine for quite a while, probably from year 2000. I was happy with this Pine as it provides quick access and text-based email client. I was actually replacing Kmail with Pine as I need faster access and full keyboard shortcuts. Pine was the best!
Yesterday, I started to use Pine to join several newsgroups and, unfortunately, Pine takes minutes to short the newsgroups email lists. Not only that, I’m having difficulties to use Pine for more than one Newsgroup servers (Although several pages on the web provides the workaround , but I didn’t succeed).
I’m counting your days, Pine.
Launch Firefox from Thunderbird
To make Thunderbird uses Firefox as default browser, just add these lines on your all-thunderbird.js.
If you’re using Debian and install Thunderbird from .tar.gz package, look to /usr/local/src/thunderbird/defaults/pref/all-thunderbird.js.
pref("network.protocol-handler.app.http", "/usr/bin/mozilla-firefox");
pref("network.protocol-handler.app.https", "/usr/bin/mozilla-firefox");
pref("network.protocol-handler.app.ftp", "/usr/bin/mozilla-firefox");
