If so, log into Gnome, and change the preferred browser to Firefox.  There is another way, as well, which is to edit Icedove's pref.js file, as described on this website:

Hi,
i don't have gnome installed. And the gnome services are not started 
under XFCE. I just had epiphany installed (i removed it, it was a 
dependency for mozplugger).
I'm surprised that "x-www-browser" doesn't invoke the xfce preferred 
browser......
No problem anymore, thanks again....
Regards.
