Dear forum

Until recently whenever I clicked a (web) link in Thunderbird it would open a new tab in Firefox and immediately would go there, showing the page. Since one of the latest upgrades -might be Thunderbird or Firefox- the immediate switch no longer works. It does open a new tab with the linked webpage, but now I have to open the tab manually with a mouse click.

What setting has changed?

(using the latest Fedora)

Thanks.

I think you'd better ask this in the Firefox forum.
