I installed the T'bird after Firefox. Perhaps you
installed them together by a Mozilla meta-package.

entry from there.
Good tip. Thanks. It worked and allowed this message
to be composed.
So now this entry exists.
Preference Name = network.protocol-handler.app.mailto
Status = user set
Type = string
Value = /home/peter/firefox.mailto.sh
firefox.mailto.sh contains this text
#!/bin/sh
thunderbird -remote 'ping()' ¦¦ exec thunderbird "$@"
# exec thunderbird if there's no instance running
thunderbird -remote "xfeDoCommand(openInbox)"
# otherwise raise window,
[ "${1%%:*}" = 'mailto' ] && thunderbird -remote "mailto(${1#mailto:})"
and the file has execute permission of course.
Thanks again, ... Peter E.
