howto change default application for protocols like imap://
I'm using Thunderbird as my mailapp. Not Kmail.
When dragging an attachment from Thunderbird and into basket I get a link like this:
imap://username@mail.domain.com:993/fetch>UID>/INBOX>12369?part=1.2&type=application/msword&filename=worddoc.doc
When clicking on this link, kio_imap4 is started ("ps aux" shows this) but nothing happens, it just hangs.
What I really want is some way of configuring that all "imap://" links should open with thunderbird.
When I do this on commandline:
mozilla-thunderbird -mail "imap://username@mail.domain.com:993/fetch>UID>/INBOX>12369?part=1.2&type=application/msword&filename=worddoc.doc"
it opens the attachment.
Someone know of any way of configuring this?

Did you already change the default mailer in KDE? Control Panel -> KDE Components -> Component Chooser.

Yes, I changed it to Thundebird, but it did not help.
When clicking on the link, a dialog comes saying "Examining file progress".
I don't think the link draged from thunderbird is a correct imap link, but it should not matter since I want it opened by thunderbird anyway.
