[plug] Slight problem with hotkeys

Hello,

I'm using Debian sid and trying to configure hotkeys to launch evolution
instead of Mozilla mail (which is does by default).

I have edited /etc/hotkeys.conf in order to specify evolution but a very
strange thing happens. It launches both evolution and mozilla mail at
the same time. The green writing that appears on screen prior to
launching shows both Mozilla and Evolution (in words) superimposed on
each other, if that makes sense.

My hotkeys.conf is as follows:

############################################################
# Global configuration for hotkeys                         #
############################################################

# These are the default values.
# A line starting with # is a comment.

### Specify the default keyboard  (without the .def extension) so you
### don't need to specify -t every time

### For the color, you can either use the strings in /etc/X11/rgb.txt,

### osd_position is either 'top' or 'bottom'
