I am using opera, not firefox, and I don't have any issue with user@host.com links, what is firefox set to use for E-mail? I should say specifically, are you using gnome or kde, and what does about:config network.protocol-handler.expose.mailto have in it. I am using xfce4 with some gnome apps (no kde at all). network.protocol-handler.expose.mailto is set to: status: default, type: boolean, value: false. I haven't changed anything here. Sounds more like firefox than xchat issue. Which firefox version is that? What happens if you execute firefox "user@host.com" manually? (or maybe with mailto:// not sure) I wrote "url handler in xchat" because when i manually run firefox, ie: /usr/bin/firefox http://valid.url <-- opens the url /usr/bin/firefox http://user@host <-- opens google for it /usr/bin/firefox user@host <-- returns an error, proper behaviour /usr/bin/firefox mailto:user@host <-- returns an error, proper behaviour /usr/bin/firefox mailto://user@host <-- returns an error, proper ehaviour I hope that's the info you needed, regards. (In reply to comment #5) Thx. Note I'm not gentoo developer, just an also-xchat/firefox user :) I would suggest you to try out xchat-2.6.2 because I couldn't reproduce your bug there, and hope to get it stabilized soon (bug 134652). Note that this version doesn't come with the number of pre-installed handlers like 2.4.5, but when I made and tried "!firefox %s" handler on user@host.com link, it did nothing (probably because firefox returns error when trying that manually). Ok, that's not xchat-related. I happened to click accidentally on a mailto: link and the same happened (firefox 1.5.0.4, bin and built). Hmm ok, marking INVALID as per comment #7 Feel free to reopen if needed |
