Re: Vim as default email (thunderbird) editor

Tried on Windows, got the same error message when press Ctrl+E.
Then drag External Editor icon to the toolbar, and click the new icon, it just works fine.

   thunderbird --jsconsole

Thunderbird's Error Console showed this when I tried to launch
the external editor:

   Error: document.getElementById("exteditor_editAsHtml") is null
   Source File: chrome://exteditor/content/exteditor.js
   Line: 442

"thunderbird" alone in the terminal doesn't show anything, neither
does "thunderbird --g-fatal-warinings".
