Hi,

Can anyone please tell me how to make Opera 9 use Thunderbird as the
default email client? I have tried the "default" setting under the
Opera preferences tab but nothing happens when you click on a mailto:
link in the browser.

There is an option to enter the path and (I think command) to you
email client but entering /user/lib/mozilla-thunderbird also gives no
joy.

Everything works fine with Firefox but Firefox's print handling really
sucks so I am trying Opera which handles printing much better.

Help with this will be greatly appreciated.
