Ok I tried clicking on the tray icon to bring up my mail reader and it tried to load Evolution, even though my Preferred Applications is set to use Thunderbird.

I installed 5.4 again now that I have libssl-dev, in hopes that there would be an option to select which mail reader to use. Double-disappointment: not only is v5.4 still lacking in that feature, but the SSL/TLS became disabled again.

I've reverted to 4.1 (again using the dpkg build routine after ensuring --disable-ssl had been removed from debian/rules) [side-note: i notice there's no debian/rules file in 5.4...] and now that I'm back to 4.1 the TLS/SSL support is back.

There's still the problem that mail-notification launches the wrong e-mail client.

My first thought is to simply uninstall evolution, but synaptic has all the evo files highlighted in bright red which I'm guessing means they shouldn't be installed due to dependencies.

How can I set mail-notification to launch the correct mail reader?
