Email Link no longer works.
I am running Red Hat Enterprise Linux Server release 6.10 (Santiago) firefox-60.1.0-6.el6.x86_64 and thunderbird-52.8.0-2.el6_9.x86_64 that are the latest available for my distribution. I believe the firefox is the one I just received in the last day or two. Now the File->Email Link no longer works. No error messages, no nothing. I restarted both Thunderbird and Firefox, but that did not help either.

Is Thunderbird still your default eMail client? Please check that
first. This is normally a settings in Thunderbird under Advanced tab
and General sub-tab.

I had the problem a while ago. I had to go into Firefox preferences and specify the application to use for mailto: links. Having Thunderbird configured as the default email client wasn't sufficient. -- Grant. . . . unix || die
