Bug Description
SRU Justification
1. impact of the bug is low for stable releases, but the fix is non-intrusive. It is included here as part of the 2.5.1 update for Lucid (LP: #660077)
2. This has been addressed during the maverick development cycle.
3. Patch adjusts the path for thunderbird in abstractions/
4. TEST CASE:
* $ sudo apt-get install thunderbird
* Configure thunderbird as the preferred mail reader in System/
* open the attached PDF in evince and click on the mailto link
5. The regression potential is very low for this patch as it only adds additional access to launch thunderbird.
