I'm using KDE and DeadRat's hard-coded "quick launch" toolbar still has FireFox and Evolution as the default apps... or it did, but I hand-edited it for KMail and Mozilla, but after installing the upgraded KDE, I was back to Evolution and FireFox. > > But you posted in, in, in.... that dreaded markup language! > (I know - its evolution's fault! :-) ) > Nope... KMail. I can't figure out how to get the darn thing to compose in plain text. Under the old KMail, it would default to plain text. For some reason, it appears the new KMail defaults to HTML... *sigh* I'm gonna have to search the FM to find out how to default to plain, ascii text. It appears that when composing a message, you have to select "Formatting" and then select it again to force plain-text. > > So, please... someone tell me how to reconfigure FC3 to use KMail for MY > > default mail client and Mozilla for my default HMTL viewer? > > Just start using kmail (select from menu after logging out and back in > so new desktop can come up.) > > Same for Moz. > Well, maybe I wasn't specific enough... I want the "quick launch" toolbar to launch Mozilla when I click on the "web browser" button and "kmail" when I click on the "launchmail" button. And I don't want to have to re-edit those again every time there's an update.
