[Bug 881584] [NEW] Preferred application not available in System settings

 

Public bug reported:

In the previous Ubuntu version, the gnome control center contains a
Preferred application section from where the default web browser and
email client could be selected.

In the latest Ubuntu verion, I can not find this section and I can not
find any option for switching from Thunderbird to Evolution as the
default email client.
