それはあなたがWindowsでしたいと思うすべてのためにソフトウェアを使用させるマイクロソフトが試みを常に試みなかったら素晴らしくないか。 私を悩ます事の1つは最もデフォルト事実である mailto 顧客はOutlook Express、展望、Eudora、雷鳥、等の基本的にあなたのコンピュータに働くために取付けられていなければならないプログラムだけのどちらである場合もある。

それはちょうど1台のコンピュータでGoogleおよびYahoo以来現れったので迷惑、の多く網によって彼らの郵便を点検するのを好み、ほしいと思わないそれを付いたである! 従ってそれをコピーアンドペーストするかわりにWebページのそれらの電子メールリンクの1つを偶然つければOutlook Expressか展望が荷を積み、あなたの時間に無駄にする間、数分間待たなければならない。

感謝して、mailtoリンクをつければ、デフォルトの顧客がGMailかYahooに置くことができるというFireFoxに原稿を取付ける方法がある! 悲しげに、これはFireFoxおよびないInternet Explorer、従ってIEからのこれを読めばその時だけ、スイッチを使用する!

働くこれのために取付けなければならない GreaseMonkey FireFoxの追加項目 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?
