    which item in the help menu is related to Email? This must be new or
    specific to certain version, i am not familiar with it.

    As far as i remeber Abiword tries to figure out what your default browser
    is and then opens the link in that.
    Abiword may be incorrectly figuring out what your default browser is, or
    possibly Mozilla is set in your system as your default browser even
    though you actually use Konquerer.

    It gets very annoying if a program asks you too many stupid questions.
    Like i said above Abiword tries to use your default browser but it might
    not be figuring this out correctly or there might be a problem with your
    setup.

    If you could give use more information about exactly what Operating
    System version and what settings you are using we might be able to figure
    out what is happening.
