thank you for your proposed alpine.desktop file.
I checked that
xdg-mime query default 'x-scheme-handler/mailto'
actually gives
alpine.desktop
but nevertheless no alpine.desktop works: I always get a chromium page instead
of alpine.
Replacing temporarily xdg-email by a script, I found that the argument it
receives is:
mailto:cont...@cueillettedetorfou.fr
- with the 2 proposed alpine.desktop files (Exec=/usr/bin/alpine)
I get a chromium page. rather strange, no?
- typing: alpine mailto:cont...@cueillettedetorfou.fr
I get the alpine page, but alpine doesn't like the mailto: prefix
- with Exec=~/bin/my_script, where my_script removes the mailto: prefix before
calling alpine it works.
best regards,
