I'm just guessing, but Thunderbird's Preferences->General "Files &
Attachments" section should read something like "https Use Google
Chrome (default)", or whatever.

Mine does, and an HTML email calls chrome as a separate process with
the HTML email, (I did not attempt a reply after editing.)

My wife's Thunderbird has nothing in the Content Type section of
"Files & Attachments", and does not call chrome for the same email,
(and I could not find any way of making changes there, and
antagonizing Google didn't yield a way to do it, either-anyone know?)

Maybe ~/.mailcap, (and refresh via update-mime --local)?

Or maybe something in /etc/alternatives/*.

Or maybe some other riddle.
