Why mailto: links?
« on: March 18, 2008, 02:04:17 PM »
I did some searching in these forums and didn't see anything about this..

Why have the names in the 'Sender' column clickable with mailto: links?

Mailto links will open up your default email client, and if you are using roundcube then there almost definately some reason why you can't use your default email client. Wouldn't it make more sense to instead have it link to a roundcube new email url? ie a roundcube url that opens a new composition to that person? or have it do nothing (like most email clients) other than select that mail.

It's one of those things that I've always wondered about roundcube.
