For instance, try setting your "preferred email" client to thunderbird, or evolution, and then click on a email link in konqueror - What email program comes up ? For me it is kmail, regardless of what you set. To me this is obvious, "gnome-default-applications-properties" does NOT control KDE (the hint is in the name) which has its own way of setting preferred applications (fire up kcontrol then navigate KDE Components -> Component Chooser) and thus it should NOT be put on the KDE menu to avoid confusion. just my 1 pence (roughly 2 cents) Chris
