   Yeah, that's the one I meant.   
      
      
   (As for where the setting is stored in the profile, my guess is it's   
   possibly the preference   
      
       browser.feeds.handler   
      
   string value, default of "ask", set to "messenger" after that checkbox   
   is checked with the Mail & News option selected.   
      
   (I mean, for resetting it, there is the preferences interface you've   
   used, I'm just adding this detail here as I was wondering how was it   
   precisely stored.))
