Thunderbird 3 as Default Mail Client

Hey guys,

I was previously able to send emails from FileMaker with attachments. It would select my default mail client which was Thunderbird 2 and bingo, no problems.

I updated to Thunderbird 3. It has lot's of improvements that I love but now Filemaker won't recognize it as my default mail client. It is my only setup mail client and it is officially setup as the default client. But when I try to send an email from FM, it opens my unconfigured Outlook 2003.

Does anybody have any suggestions? Has anyone tried to use Thunderbird 3 and their mail client with Filemaker?

Thanks for looking into this. If you need more details, don't hesitate to ask.

Yes I have the same problem on MAC

Filemaker v11

Thunderbird 3.03

default email specified as Thunderbird.

it DOES work in Windows versions , not the MAC using the Send email script in Filemaker.

I never found a solution.

I ended up reinstalling the computer. I made sure to not install Outlook with Office and disabled Outlook Express.

Then I installed Thunderbird and FM.
