Description Ralf Corsepius 2014-12-06 03:47:55 UTC 
Description of problem:

When an SEAlert occurs, the sealert browser offers a "Notify Admin" button.

When pressing this button, I am seeing a button telling me
"Failed to execute default Mail Reader.
Input/output error
[Close]
"

Version-Release number of selected component (if applicable):
setroubleshoot-3.2.20-3.fc21.x86_64

How reproducible:
Always


Actual results:
c.f. above.

Expected results:
Function.

Additional info:
- I am using xfce4 and am using "Mozilla Thunderbird" as my preferred Mail Reader.
- In my syslog, I found this, which I presume to be related to this issue:
...

Seems to me as if setroubleshoot has problems in interacting with xfce4.
Comment 1 Mark van Rossum 2014-12-11 00:23:59 UTC 
I have encountered this using a powerpoint presentation, opened in Libreoffice.

This presentation contained the mailto command.

Running XFCE and thunderbird as well.
Comment 2 Mark van Rossum 2014-12-11 00:26:49 UTC 
It actually also throws an error on native Libreoffice presentations.
use
Insert-> Hyperlink email
to create one, and then show the presentation.
Comment 3 Mark van Rossum 2014-12-11 09:38:12 UTC 
So this might be an exo bug.
Comment 4 Mark van Rossum 2014-12-11 09:39:49 UTC 
Created attachment 967168 [details]
Libreoffice presentation

This presentattion gives an error in XFCE when you run it, and click the text.

Can someone try this in something else than XFCE?

> So this might be an exo bug.

Confirmed - It is. 

The origin of this bug is in Red Hat's exo-compose-mail-1 (aka. mailtoparse.py). Replacing this stuff with upstream's exo-compose-mail-1 fixes this issue. 

I am going to file a bug against exo.
Comment 6 Ralf Corsepius 2014-12-14 12:38:13 UTC 
There seems to be BZ on this topic open: RHBZ#983150.
Comment 7 Petr Lautrbach 2015-06-02 15:08:23 UTC 
It works in Fedora 22 with exo-0.10.6-1.fc22.x86_64 and setroubleshoot-3.2.24-1.fc22.x86_64
