¿No sería agradable si Microsoft no intentó siempre intento para hacer que usted utiliza su software para todo que usted desea hacer en Windows? Una de las cosas que me molesta es más el hecho que el defecto mailto los clientes pueden solamente ser Outlook Express, perspectiva, Eudora, Thunderbird, etc, básicamente los programas que tienen que ser instalados en su computadora para trabajar.
¡Eso es molesto porque desde entonces Google y Yahoo han venido adelante, las porciones de gente tiene gusto de comprobar su correo con la tela y no la desea se pegó en apenas una computadora! Tan si usted chasca encendido uno de esos acoplamientos del email en un Web page por accidente en vez de copiarlo y de pegar, usted tendrá que esperar algunos minutos mientras que carga del Outlook Express o de la perspectiva ascendente y pierde su tiempo.
Agradecidamente, hay una manera de instalar una escritura en FireFox por el que si usted chasca encendido un acoplamiento del mailto, el cliente del defecto pueda ser fijado a GMail o a Yahoo! ¡Tristemente, esto trabajará solamente con FireFox y no Internet Explorer, así que si usted está leyendo esto del IE, cambia encima!
Para que esto para trabajar, usted tenga que instalar Agregación de GreaseMonkey FireFox and then install the script. Don’t worry if this sounds a little technical, just click the links and click install! You don’t have to do anything very technical to get it to work. Once you’ve installed the GreaseMonkey add-on, click here to download the Mailto 2 Webmail script. Again, this is very simple, just click the Install this script button at the top right.
The only semi-technical thing you have to do with the script is if you’re using Yahoo Mail. You need to click on Tools, Greasemonkey and Manage User Scripts.

Next, click on the Mailto script and click the Edit button. Browse to Notepad.exe or WordPad.exe under C:\Windows to use as your text editor. Under the “EDIT THIS ONLY” section, change the whichService value to Yahoo instead of Gmail and change yahooServer to the server name when you are checking your mail at Yahoo.com.

It’s usually right before the .mail.yahoo part and it looks something like us.fXXX.

Save the file and you’re done! Of course for GMail users, you don’t have to do anything at all, it just works! Remember though that you need to restart FireFox before the changes take effect. Now click on a mailto link and you’ll be happy to see a new message automatically composed in your favorite web mail program! Unfortunately, Hotmail does not support this and therefore does not work with this plug-in.

There are tons more Greasemonkey scripts out there that do all sorts of things, so make sure to read my post on 25 Greasemonkey scripts you should take a look at. Enjoy!

AWESOME!!!! I have spent the better part of my day trying to figure this out/search the web and find the answer. It is one of those things that has irritated me for some time and I finally decided to fix it. I am running Vista and most info I could find wouldn’t work with this OS. Your suggestion is the only thing that worked. THANK YOU!!
Wow! like Michelle I was sooo happy to finally find an answer to this problem! I use yahoo mail and was almost ready to celebrate having successfully fixed it when I got to the part about changing the yahooServer. What do I do if I have 2 yahoo email addresses: one’s the address I have with my Yahoo hosted website and one’s my personal yahoo address (plus my husband has an address on the same computer)?
I hope this isn’t too stupid a question?
it works great good job i was looking for this fix for a long time
Thanks so much for your suggestion, the author of the script did an excellent job! Now my gmail apps mail account opens like a charm in firefox when clicking ‘mailto’ links…
