After installing the latest Thunderbird update (5.7.0), no longer do internal hyperlinks do anything. The links are in the message (can copy/paste in the browser). I use Firefox.

I just rebooted my system and now the links work. I actually thought I had rebooted after the Thunderbird upgrade (for other reasons), but perhaps not. Anyway, thanks, it appears to be working now.

Have you used the option in Firefox to always check to see if Firefox is the default browser?
