Open Controlcenter, then KDE Components, then File Associations, then click on the text and look for html attributes and click on netscape and move it up to the top of the list. If netscape is not in the list then you will have to look for it by clicking on ADD. If its not in the list then you will have to look in the folder. When you find the Netscape folder then look for the netscape executeing file and click on it and the ok. Then you will go back to the list were you should move it up to the top of the list. and then click apply. Then test a link in one of your e-mails HTH -- The most valueable Treasure you have, lay within you. Regards Ralph Robinson icq#26003826 www.superhanau.de (in renovation)

Thanks, that works but ... 1. at first kmail uses konqueror to fetch the page (it emits a GET request). Then it determines the mime type to make a decision what application to start. Based on text/html it starts netscape that fetches the page again.

Good day Torsten,
What I really want is that kmail starts netscape when it encounters a http://... or https://... link based on that pattern not on the mime type.
Just an idea... Perhaps you could wrap you wanted functionality in a script. Associate the script with the html MIME type and call it with the %u parameter (which delivers to the script the URL you clicked with the mouse) In your script test the delivered URL to see if it starts with 'http://' or 'https://' If it does then start netscape with the URL, otherwise start whatever else you want started with the URL. Best regards :o) Johnny :o)

That is exactly what I am doing. My script looks for a running netscape and sends it a '--remote openURL(...,new-window)' command. If there is no running netscape it starts one. But the problem remains. Kmail first uses konqueror to fetch the URL to determine it's mime type. In a second step it decides to call my script based on that mime type. Then netscape refetches the URL. I don't want kmail to prefetch any URL. Instead it should immediately call my script.

Hmm... Then perhaps you should ask this question on the kde list or the kde-devel list at KDE, in stead of here at SuSE. It seems to be a "deep" question, which is better asked at the place that actually _makes_ kde. PS Please do not reply to both the list _and_ me. I'm on the list, and thus gets the masseage twize.

I think the file you need is in ~/.kde/share/apps/kabc/std.vcf or at least that's where I found it when it seemed to be misbehaving.
