clicking url links in email doesn't function

Binary package hint: evolution

I am using Xubuntu.

In another bug report I read that this problem might have something to do with the following file:

/home/tommie/.gconf/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/http/%gconf.xml

This file read the following:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
        <entry name="needs_terminal" mtime="1176124884" type="bool" value="false">
        </entry>
        <entry name="enabled" mtime="1176124884" type="bool" value="true">
        </entry>
        <entry name="command" mtime="1176124884" type="string">
                <stringvalue>/usr/lib/swiftfox/firefox &quot;%s&quot;</stringvalue>
        </entry>
</gconf>

I am not using swiftfox anymore so I substituted the line with:

               <stringvalue>/usr/lib/firefox/firefox &quot;%s&quot;</stringvalue>

If I execute /usr/lib/firefox/firefox a new firefox window pops up loading my homepage.

But links in evolution emails still are not functioning...
