Question Thunderbird executable


Hi
I'm trying to find the Thunderbird executable file. I wish to make it the default rss reader in Firefox. I looked in /usr/bin, /usr/lib /etc/thunderbird with no seeming executable.

Thanks

Another command you can try is
Code:
$which thunderbird
Unlike whereis, it only searches in your path.
