Subject: bug#24066: icecat "mailto" handler does not work - and cannot be reconfigured by user
Date: Mon, 26 Oct 2020 17:39:46 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <7321280d-efc6-bf8d-d287-6bbd9bba630b@web.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20160725093440.5d4f9c6f@scratchpost.org>
This issue annoys me, so I searched for a workaround which I found :)
In Icecat go to about:preferences -> General -> Applications (only a
header): Set mailto to `Use other` and set it to
`/run/current-system/profile/bin/icedove`.
$ grep mailto
/gnu/store/3zxx08qfl9q6d9s80p58521y9x3ni3p1-icedove-78.3.3/share/applications/icedove.desktop
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/mailto;
That seems correct. xdg-open mailto:foo@gnu.org works for me always, so
it really seems a Icecat/Firefox thing...
