Description Jostein Berntsen 2005-06-27 20:11:31 UTC 
Version:           0.1.1 (using KDE 3.4.1 Level "a" , SUSE 9.2 UNSUPPORTED)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.3.4 (pre 3.3.5 20040809)

When selecting thunderbird as the mail client in Digikam the "Preparing images to send" dialog box hangs at "Starting mailer agent..." and Thunderbird is not opened. No error messages. Other mail clients like kmail and mozilla works. The thunderbird path is /usr/bin/thunderbird, and works from the command line as wellas Alt-F2.
