What happens in detail when I click on a WWW link?



When I click on a WWW link in Balsa (1.2.4), I'd expect a new browser 
window to be opened with the link.

On my installation, Balsa freezes instead. ps tells me that a new balsa 
process has been created; if I kill it, Balsa unfreezes and I can going 
on working with it.

 From the FAQ, I have learned that Balsa uses gnome-moz-remote 
(probably with --newwin) to (attempt to) open the browser window. The 
strange thing is that I am able to use gnome-moz-remote to open a 
browser window from the same environment that I use to start Balsa. 
E.g.:

% balsa &
% gnome-moz-remote --newwin http://www.glue.ch

works like a charm (with or without --newwin).

There must be an obscure difference between me running gnome-moz-remote 
from the command line and Balsa running it. My problem is that I don't 
know how to determine that difference. How can I see the output of 
gnome-moz-remote when run from Balsa?

Any other suggestions?

Thanks
Thomas
