The workaround in xdg-email does not work in Ubuntu 13.04 for Thunderbird. The workaround includes looking up and parsing thunderbird.desktop to finally call thunderbird. Maybe there could be an easier solution?
xdg-email currently ends up with calling gvfs-open "mailto:?attach=..." what does not work with thunderbird due to some strange security policies. This should be fixed within xdg-email in my opinion.
