Im saying people who use thunderbird mail are unreachable to those of us that use gmail.

My first reaction to that was "That is utter rubbish", based on my own experience which is anything but that. But then I figured there must be something that is making you think that, so like David I will ask you to provide specifics to substantiate that statement. However I will phrase it differently in the hope of getting a more complete response.

What makes you think folk using Thunderbird can not be contacted when you send them email from Gmail?

More to the point, why have you got Thunderbird set as your default mail client if you do not use it. Uninstall it. Then it will never pop up when you click a link.

OK more specifics. I went to Wral, at the bottom of the page in the contacts I clicked on the Seth Effron email link and the dreaded "sign up for thunderbird" box popped up. Don want to do that again and again so I write to this site to get advice on how to stop the thunderbird mail popup. You advised delete thunderbird mail. did that went back to Wral site now the email link does nothing.

Would you please post the exact URL of which you write? I still cannot envision what your issue is. Thank you.

Added notes, generally when the dreaded thunderbird sign up popup appears I can copy the email address for the link and paste it in a gmail window to accomplish my taskbut in this case it is only a link with no email.
