Sorry to inform you that using the PCDefaultApp utility did not fix the
problem; and neither does the Mail program have a place to tell it that
thunderbird is the default. 
Therfore the iPhoto program only lists Eudora, AOLMail, and Mail, but not
thunderbird
However, now I can from either firefox, or IE ask them to send a link by
mail and thunderbird starts properly.
So what is remaining is the iPhoto problem
Thanks
