+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> because I found anything indicating which browser to use on
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Thunderbird's configuration.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Thunderbird reports to be 10.0.3 which matches the package name:

+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Has anyone else seen this? Any idea whether it is a bug in Thunderbird

+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Thanks in advance.Action to what you want to do
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i> Alejandro.
+</I>&gt;&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Somewhere along the line between 3.x and 10.x, Mozilla changed how Thunderbird does this stuff. Try this:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Go to Edit/Preferences/Attachments and see if http and https are on the list. If they are, change the Action to what you want. But
+</I>&gt;<i> they probably aren't there in your case, so don't panic:
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> Change from Attachments to Advanced, General tab, Config Editor. Search for network.protocol-handler.warn-external.http. Both http
+</I>&gt;<i> and https should come up. Change both to true. Close the Preferences, then click on an http link. A popup should show up, asking
+</I>&gt;<i> what to do. Tell it, and be sure to tell it to remember it. This will add it to the Attachments list, so you can change it later if
+</I>&gt;<i> you want. Repeat for an https link.
+</I>&gt;<i>
+</I>&gt;<i> That should do it.
+</I>
+That did it. Thanks!
+
+Now, what the heck have the links to do with attachments??? The guys from Thunderbird should rethink their configuration...
+
+Alejandro.
