Works like a charm, thanks. :-)

By the way, my default x-www-browser is mozilla. I wonder, is this "really"
should be done like this ???
When you want to see Thunderbird help page you need to create file called
user.js in your M-TB profile directory if it doesn't exist yet and write
down
those lines ???
Because if I click a link in my emails, it automatically starts mozilla
which is my default x-www-browser without any problem.
That's why I asked my previous question, since I thought the help would be
a builtin help. Never thougt it a web page on the internet.
