[sylpheed:35944] Re: Is it possible to run applications by file extension?

[ag@gmail]

I may be out of line here, since I am not aware of the development model of sylpheed - I feel default execution leads to woes (think outlook), and is a big security concern. Sylpheed has secure defaults - and you are free to change them. Else it won't be different than outlook and in the same league insecure.

For instance, I would like to be able to use zathura to open .pdf files, gnumeric to open .xls files, abiword to open .doc files and so on. But I want these actions to be the default, and I do not want to have to go and change the "Open with" button every time a file type that arrives changes. Is it possible to have this feature?
