I couldn't get that to work, so I tried an experiment. I created the file /home/pwa/bin/ffoxtest (executable) with contents: #/bin/sh echo Start the file > ~/tmp/flog echo "1: " $1 >> ~/tmp/flog echo "2: " $2 >> ~/tmp/flog I then set the value of network.protocol-handler.app.mailto to /home/pwa/bin/ffoxtest and found that the ffoxtest program wasn't being executed since ~/tmp/flog wasn't getting modified. Yet setting that variable to kmail causes kmail to be invoked (but without including the link in the created message). So it seems that the variable does have an effect, but it doesn't just call the program that's given as the key. I'm puzzled as to what it really does. Paul
