Default : Changing icedove's profile browser setting for http(s) links in emails

Hi list,

I searched allover but can't really find a solution... I need to be
running one Icedove instance with the -no-remote argument because I need
to keep profiles separate.


Now the instance running with -no-remote will give an error dialog when
clicking on a web link, complaining that "Iceweasel is already running,
but is not responding. ..." *if* Iceweasel is already open.


I would like to try changing the browser used *just for this icedove*
profile (e.g. to Midori). Most suggestions on the web are related to
changing the system-wide default browser (which I'd like to keep to
Iceweasel), also the tips I've found about adding parameters in the
about:config didn't work, nor have I an http type in the attachments.


Any suggestion or advice would be highly appreciated.

Thanks,
Lorenzo.

It seems to be a bug:

Alas, so it seems But I still can't find a way to switch the called
browser to, say, Midori.
