This bug has been around since FC2 Test 1, and I have been waiting to 
see if it got fixed in test 2. (no luck there...)  You guys hit the 
problem on the head.  gnome-default-applications-properties is set up 
out of the box (off of the ISO?) with epiphany as the default browser.  
Unfortunately, it is not installed by default.  As mentioned below, you 
can fix the problem of not being able to click on web links in an email 
by:

1) installing epiphany     -      yum install epiphany

or

2) opening up  gnome-default-applications-properties  and changing 
epiphany %s   to    mozilla %s  (or any other browser that is actually 
installed on the computer.

   so feel free to hop on!
