I am not sure why, but evolution is not spawning mozilla or any web
browser when selecting a hyper link in an email.

How reproducible:
Always

1. Start Evolution

3.
    

Actual Results:  Nothing happens

Expected Results:  Mozilla or another web browser should spawn with
correct link.

This is a dupe of bug 119569.  The problem is fixed as of
gnome-vfs2-2.6.0-5 (which changes the default browser from epiphany -
which is not installed - to Mozilla).  Update gnome-vfs2 and create a
new user account to test.
