in [Debian]

From: Jimmy Johnson on 7 May 2010 13:20 When in iceweasel/firefox when I can right click on selected text and I get the option to search google for the selected text in a new tab. Anybody know of a way I can have the same in icedove/thunderbird by right clicking? -- Jimmy Johnson Bakersfield, CA. U.S.A. Registered Linux User #380263 K.I.S.S.

It seems there is an add-on for Thunderbird: SearchWith https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/2194/ I've not tested it, not sure even if its works on linux platforms.
