When ever you click mailto hyperlinks like these the default mail handler pops up. On windows the default mail handler is Outlook and its really annoying when it pops up especially if you are do not use outlook like most of the people. Well here is a way to tweak Firefox settings so that instead of outlook compose box you are directed to your yahoo mail or gmail compose box automatically.
Here is the procedure..
From the browser menu bar select Tools --> Options.
From the pop up options window select the Applications tab. Go to the mailto content type and in the actions field from the drop down list you can select your favorite mail client.
Note: For the mailto link to work properly you must be already logged in to your mail account or else you will have to enter later.
