why do hyperlinks not open with a click?
I have Linux Mint 18.1, fresh install, imported my profile from prior Linux Mint 13. Prior to this, hyperlinks in inbox messages opened to Firefox with a click. Now, have to cut and paste.
I've set Firefox as default browser, and gone through the mozilla database, have tried all diagnostics. No luck.
Any clue?

1. Open Thunderbird and go into the program options. From the menu bar click Tools: Options: Attachments section: Incoming tab. Or from the "three bar" menu button on the top right, click Options: Options: Attachments section: Incoming tab.
You will see a window like I show in my screenshot below.
2. Find the lines for http and https and delete them. Click OK on the options window to close it.
3. Click on a webpage link in an e-mail. You will be asked what program to use to open the link with. Choose Firefox, and to remember the decision.
