For the archive....

The answer is that your "fileassociations" should be configured so that it 
launches "mozilla %u", not "mozilla".  The %u tells KMail (kde?) that the 
application can handle URLs, and not just files.

Of course, KMail is very stupid about how it does this (Basically Konquerer 
downloads it first, and then it gets passed to Mozilla where it downloads it 
again), but at least I can click on links in email messages and get them 
where/how I want.
