it's more generic than that. It's easily fixed though. Shut down 
thunderbird, and create a file called user.js in your 
~/.thunderbird/*.default/ directory with the following

&quot;firefox&quot;);<br>user_pref(&quot;network.protocol-handler.app.https&quot;, 
&quot;firefox&quot;);<br><br><br>Then start thunderbird, and as long as

other things you can modify this way by searching for &quot;mozilla

useful:<br><br>user_pref(&quot;mailnews.headers.showUserAgent&quot;, 
true);<br>user_pref(&quot;mailnews.headers.showOrganization&quot;, 
true);<br><br>hth,<br><br>Doug<br><br>--<br><br>	If you're never wrong,
