If you select mutt as a preferred mail reader application in gnome- default-application-properties, it is not automatically set to run in a terminal. The gconf property /desktop/gnome/url- handlers/mailto/needs_terminal isn't set either to the correct value, which is found in gnome-default-applications.xml. Steps to reproduce : 1. On a default install of Ubuntu lucid, install mutt 2. open gnome-default-application-properties 3. select mutt as the preferred mail reader application and close 4. in a terminal, type : gconftool-2 -a /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto Expected result : command = mutt %s needs_terminal = true enabled = true Actual result : command = mutt %s needs_terminal = false enabled = true You will find enclosed a patch that corrects this behavior for the Mail Reader, but I think that the same problem concerns the Web Browser and the Multimedia player.
