Feature Request: mailto handler #33

Open drichardson opened 2 months ago

Would like the desktop app to be able to be the default mailto handler so that when I click on a mailto:hello@example.com link, it opens ProtonMail Desktop app.

@drichardson For me, at least on macOS, this is already possible (by opening Apple Mail, settings, there I can chose the default mail app)

Oh interesting. I couldn't do anything in Apple Mail because I had no Apple mail account (and it would not allow me to use Apple mail at all without configuring a mail account first). I'll try setting up a dummy account and then doing what you said as a workaround.

I still think ProtonMail should be able to do this without this flow.
