Description
Chrome has configured their browser so it is extremely difficult to add a new handler for mailto links.
This is so difficult to change that It seems to be a deliberate choice to restrict Chrome users to their Google owned Gmail webmail.
I always use the outlook.com webmail service and have searched extensively for some way to add outlook.com as a default mailto link handler.
Most of the techniques described on various websites are far beyond my skills as a basic internet surfer and the reponses from those whom have attempted to use them seem to indicate the success rate is very much a hit or miss type of thing.
I have also encountered a few Chrome Extensions to address this and unforunately none seem to work any longer.
Has this been adressed in your Ungoogled Chromium and if not is their any possibility that you could somehow modify the relevant settings so people could choose freely which default mailto link handler they wish to use?
