Subject: Compose Email with email client other than Apple Mail

OSX 10.7.5
Quicksilver B70 (3935)

Whenever I bring up a contact from my address book and use the Compose
Email action, QS tries to open Apple Mail.  I do not use Apple Mail, I use
Postbox for email.  Postbox is set as the default email reader in Mail.app
preferences.  This used to work and I think it changed when I upgraded to
10.7 from 10.6.8.  

Has anyone else experienced this?  Thanks in advance for your time.

Quicksilver has it's own 'email reader' preferences, separate from those in
Mail.app

If you go to Quicksilver >  Preferences > Preferences
Then on the left hand side click 'Handlers' and change the Email handler to
'Default', does this work?

In the next release of Quicksilver, there will also be an “Open E-mail URL” action that you can use on e-mail addresses. This will essentially tell the OS to open a `mailto:` address, which should go to your default client. Note that this only works for e-mail addresses, not contacts themselves.
