One thing that I can't get a handle on in Firefox is how to force a
single window, with all URL's clicked on from anywhere always opening a
new tab in my open window. For instance, if I receive an email and it
contains a link, clicking on it opens a new window. There are other
examples of this. I've downloaded two extensions, Tabbrowser Preferences
and QuickTabPrefToggle, but if the latter installed its toggle I can't
find it, and the former gives you a few more options in prefs but none
seem to force single window behavior. What am I missing?
Try Tabbrowser Extensions. It's not a superbly written extension, and
even the developer warns people off of it, but I'm totally addicted to
it and can't live without it (and I don't find it unstable or
anything). It can do what you want (heck, it can do anything even
slightly related to tabbed browsing).

Ben: Wow, those are some serious warnings on his website. I loaded it up
- so far, so good. I went through the prefs and only changed a couple of
things. He seems to default to forced single window, just what I wanted.
Thanks for the tip. I just clicked on a link from an email message in
Thunderbird and it opened the link in a new tab in the currently open
window - perfect.
