I run it under KDE 3.1.4. I do not think Evolution looks at the KDE
settings. At least it seems that it does not. I get the following error
when I click on a url in Evolution:

 (evolution-1.4:4222): evolution-mail-WARNING **: gnome_url_show: There
 was an error launching the default action command associated with this
 location.

I would expect it to use GNOME settings. As I do not run Gnome, this is
not set. I have a rather recent GNOME installed. Maybe I need to fire it
up so I can set this...
