The -compose command line argument doesn't work correctly in Thunderbird 1.5 due to a parsing bug. It generates the compose message window but none of the fields are filled in. The only workaround is to use a mailto: URL. However, this prevents you from passing an attachment due to a security restriction. thunderbird -compose "mailto:somebody@somewhere?cc=address@provider&subject=hi&body=something"; -- Lisa: Dad, I think that's pretty spurious. Homer: Well, thank you, honey. -- Homer Simpson Homer vs. Lisa and the 8th Commandment
