Title:
  xdg-email fails to launch Thunderbird

Status in Xdg-utils:
  Unknown
Status in xdg-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  When clicking "mailto:"; links in Chromium, nothing happens. I have
  Googled around and found that Chromium uses xdg-email for these. I
  think the problems is the routine "desktop_file_to_binary" which
  returns empty because the grep for Exec finds three such lines in the
  file /usr/share/applications/thunderbird.desktop.
