Default client selection is inconsistent with gnome-default-applications-properties

Bug Description

Binary package hint: thunderbird-gnome-support

thunderbird-gnome-support sets the mail command to thunderbird "%s" while gnome-default-applications-properties dialog sets it to thunderbird %s. I guess, because of this string mismatch thunderbird is always asking to be default client after it was already set with gnome-default-applications-properties.

Having a custom command in gnome-default-applications-properties is no big deal and I know the default client popup in thunderbird can be turned off, but it might be fixed easily.
