xdg-utils (1.0.2+cvs20100307-3) unstable; urgency=low xdg-email now honors the $MAILER variable when deciding which mail user agent to use. Remember to wrap it in a terminal window if you're using a text-based mailer. For example: MAILER="xterm -e mutt" You can also list multiple mailers separated by colons, in which case xdg-email will try each one in order until one of them succeeds. -- Per Olofsson Mon, 25 Oct 2010 10:23:18 +0200
