by David Sudjiman ~ December 7th, 2005. Filed under: Linux.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");
