Thank you for these commands Bob,

$ x-www-browser
/usr/bin/x-www-browser: 95: exec: /usr/lib/chromium/x-www-browser: not
found

$ echo $?
127

Alternatives was working while I was using stable [jessie] then I
upgraded to testing and suddenly it reverted back to iceweasel.

Okay,
My system hadn't been upgraded for a week or more, so upgrading now.

I will get back with what happens when the upgrade is complete.

I'm on satellite internet so it will take a bit longer than others who
have ADSL might expect.

In the famous words of Muscles Schwartznegger, "I'll be back".

Thank you for your time and adding to your system [claws-mail] to test
this.
