Not a big issue, but I notice that some e-mail address links within a message link (with a mouse click) to the composition view while some do not. Just wondering why this is. You can right-click on the dead links to compose an e-mail and that works fine but why the difference? Is it a TB setting, or a configuration of the e-mail link itself that causes this discrepancy? Try these 2 links within an e-mail received (send it to yourself) to see what I mean.
info@urbanadamah.org (works with mouse left click)
membership@famsf.org (dead link with left mouse click...must rt click to compose)
)

Re: E-Mail Addresses Links within a Message
The first one is not recognized as a link (when you hover the mouse cursor over it the address is not underlined). The second one is.
I would be surprised if just right clicking on the unrecognized link does anything, don't you need to select the text first?

No...just rt. Click and compose e-mail and the address shows up in the “To” box.

Re: E-Mail Addresses Links within a Message
It’s actually the other way around when the links are embedded in a message. You have to send these links (as links )to your Thunderbird account then try left clicking on them and see which one opens. A bit curious!
