I cannot send an email link in Namoroka.
I go to file-send link and nothing happens.
I tried to find the problem by about:config in Namoroka.
I just found /usr/bin/mozilla-thunderbird.
With my limited knowledge I do not know what else to look
for.
Any assistance will be appreciated.
in order to send a link, you'll have to configure the default mailclient. This means the mailprogram to be opened when you chose "send link" in the browser. If you don't use mozilla thunderbird as your mailprogram, you should chose another.
You don't have to use about:config, you may look at "Edit->Preferences->Applications" and configure the entry at "mailto".

First thank you
I did as you instructed
for mailto is says use thunderbird.
I do not know why it does not work.
Did you ever use an Emailprogram like Outlook or similar?
Do you have an emailadress? (please do not post the adress here)
If you have an emailadress, which provider do you use? and which protocol (imap or pop3 or exchange) do you use?
If you have an emailadress you may post the part on the righthandside of the @ sign.

Well, then I misunderstood the issue. I have firefox and thunderbird, and sending a link works for me. In general: when clicking on a "mailto" link on a website my thunderbird opens automatically.
