Version: (using KDE 4.3.1) Installed from: Debian testing/unstable Packages Whenever I click on a http://... link in KMail, the link is always opened in kwrite. I think it should be opened in konqueror or in some "default browser". The problem is present since I upgraded from KDE 3. Before the upgrade I deleted my .kde directory and did not (yet) change file associations at all.
Please check: - systemsettings/File Associations - type 'html' in the search field and click on 'text/html' and 'xhtml+xml' What is the first listed application for both the 'General' and 'Embedding' tabs ?
Type associations for "General": text/html: Kwrite first, then konqueror, etc. Kwrite shows up two more times in the list! text/htmlh: Kwrite is the first, second and third in the list! application/xhtml+xml: Kwrite is not the first, but shows up 3 times in the list... application/pdf: Kwrite is the first (and no more Kwrites...) application/x-php: Kwrite, Kwrite, Kwrite... application/atom+xml: Kwrite first, then others, Kwrite two more times.. image/x-eps: Kwrite is not the first, but shows up 3 times in the list... The settings for "Embedded" seem normal. These are just examples... Kwrite has infested my associations 3 times... Where are these settings stored? Is it under the .kde directory?
Does the same happen for you with links you click in konqueror?
> Does the same happen for you with links you click in > konqueror? I've solved the problem by removing the extra kwrite entries from all the file associations. I can't remember if it happened in konqueror as well, but again: the root cause was the infection of file associations by kwrite. So the problem is basically solved, the question is how my file associations get into that bogus state.
Reassigning to kdelibs as this is clearly not the fault of kmail

As the ticket mentions, this happened when I upgraded from KDE 3 to 4. Even if the bug still exists, I doubt it is worth spending any time with it.
