It's there. Again, the issue is NOT that Thunderbird is not getting
launched, but the word "mailto:"; appears in the email address if
launched from a link in Chrome. The address is just fine when the link
comes from Firefox.
Maybe it's the version of Chrome your using that might be the issue, or
does it do it on all of them? Are you up to date, and if so, you using
stable, beta, unstable? Might try a different one. Or, to see if it's
how Chrome is seeing the code on mailto: stuff, when see one, go to the
settings/tools/developers (I think) and see what the html code already
it looks like. Might just be a bug, but I don't have that problem on
chrome/evolution (although you use thunderbird). You might try diff
email just to test if evo or kmail or something does the same thing?
Here's the strange thing about Chrome - I switched over this morning
to my Debian
Sid partition where I had been using Gmail to handle mailto links in
Chrome. I followed the
instructions I had posted in this thread earlier to switch to
Thunderbird...and now Chrome just opens a blank tab
when I click on a mailto link! Thunderbird is the default mail program
in my installation. But
for some unknown reason Chrome doesn't recognize it. I was using IceWm.
When I switch to Gnome,
Chrome opens Sylpheed (a mail program I used to use) which is still on
the drive! It seems Chrome's
handling of mailto is bizarre. I am now trying to figure out how to get
it to recognize Thunderbird which is
the default mail handler.
