No. But visiting the author site being mandatory to install it, I
thought it was simpler to point directly there.

Yes. This is a buffer that is uninteresting to the user, see:

Oops. Right. I should change that, thanks (and use my new function name
`cbthunderlink-open', not the old one `org-email-open').

That is what I first thought. But, I couldn't find an Emacs function
that would pass that URL to the OS desktop, asking it to open the
document.
I'm not using `browse-url' (except for web pages) and I wasn't aware of
`goto-address-mode'.

I'm not sure to understand. The `cb_thunderlink' add-on allow to build
the link in one click from inside Thunderbird; that the part that I find
really useful. And if Thunderbird is able to open an email from its
"mid:" URL, the prefered method should probably be to install only the
add-on inside Thunderbird, and use Thunderbird to reopen the "mid:" link.

ok. Thanks for your comments.
