[Victor de Oliveira Abreu Sodré]

When I right click in a link to open the menu of context, firefox open the evolution. Like as mailto does.

We need more information. Could you please say step by step how to reproduce this issue?
  From what I am understanding you right-click any link in Firefox and Evolution opens?

Exactly it Lightbreeze! Any link inside of pages opened by firefox when right-click evolution opens... Actualy I didn't see if 9.4 vesion already fixed this bug, but until 8.10 this bug persists. What the scene to this bug:

  -- You're using firefox and you whant to open a link in other tap. So you right-click in the link to open the context menu and click "open in other tap" option ( I can do it in windows and openSuse well ).. Most times when I did it ( sinse ubuntu 8.4 until 8.10 ), right-clicked in a link, evolution opened instead of the context menu. Fell times the context menu opened in the first time, the rest evolution opens and I need to close it and click in the link again to appears the context menu.

You may be clicking 'Send Link...' accidentally, is this possible?
I suggest clicking a link with the middle mouse button to open a new tab - works a treat :-)

I don't think so.. Only a single right-click open the evolution insted of context menu.. I know that the middle button open a new tab in second layer, but we don't use the context menu only to open a new tap right? =]

I know that this isn't a relevant bug but only in ubuntu that I've saw it happens. I've tried in opensuse, centos and windows, neither them I saw this problem.
