Please don't be so lazy. It takes you less time to enter a few details (at least the relevant package versions and a description of what you do and where you notice misbehaviour) than a bug triager who would need to try and reproduce and possibly fail to reproduce due to lack of details.

We've had something like this before with bug 690298 (F-15). Please compare with that ticket, tell whether you see something different.

Comment 2 Jérôme Benoit 2011-11-04 11:38:59 UTC
It's the exact same problem :

[Desktop Entry]
Version=1.0
Name=Claws Mail
GenericName=E-mail client
GenericName[pl]=Program poczty elektronicznej
Exec=claws-mail %u
Icon=claws-mail
Categories=Network;Email;Office;
Comment=Gtk+ based Mail Client
Comment[pl]=Program pocztowy używający GTK+
Terminal=false
Type=Application
StartupNotify=true
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/mailto;
X-Info=Claws Mail
X-Desktop-File-Install-Version=0.18

is OK. 

Running update-desktop-database fix it but rpm should have done it. I haven't checked the .spec file but in my case, after yum install claws-mail, the command hasn't been runt for whatever reason (buglet in the .spec file or ...).

Comment 3 Michael Schwendt 2011-11-04 11:46:56 UTC
Thanks! That's what I've had in mind, because it is not reproducible with F-15 here because other packages have run update-desktop-database meanwhile. ;)
