Email button or menu Email Link does not work. Firefox 29.0 on Linux Mint 13
Neither the Email Link menu option under File nor the Email Button installed from the customise menu option when placed on the tool bar work.
Thunderbird 24.5.0 is the email client both installed on Linux Mint 13 with latest updates.
Nothing happens at all when on a web page and the email link is clicked or the envelope icon is clicked.
Help appreciated.
Regards Cavemann

HI Cavemann, I just tested out that feature for the first time. It is pretty cool. I just tested this in version 30 and it worked ok. Are there any changes to the Application settings for email to links? It remembers the preferences in this menu.

Hello
The Preferred applications menu list showed Thunderbird as the email program but it did not link the email button to firefox.
I had to eventually go to the Firefox preferences and in Applications, Thunderbird was not listed. So I selected Other and browsed to the filesystem / Usr/Bin and selected the Thunderbird icon which then put Thunderbird in the Firefox Applications options for email.
The email link / button then worked.
Now I have to sort out the link for emailing photos from Picasa as this does not work either
Thanks for help Cavemann
Let's ask the Thunderbird experts :-) please post a new question.
