TB 88.0b2 won't open email form from mailto link if running

Post by BruceAWittmeier »

My latest Thunderbird 88.0b2 does not open a mail window if I click a mailto link in a html page if TB is already open (but no error or msg). It works if TB is NOT open -- will open an email page. Did I possibly mess up a setting or is TB not cooperating?

Edit: Just downloaded ver 89.0b1 and same result - won't open Write window if TB is running.

Looks like this bug: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1084993 -- just had to get my query words correct to identify.

Edit 2: I don't think this is a bug with Thunderbird but Firefox. It works fine with Google. Can someone move this to the proper firefox category?
I often take a long windy road to my destination. Upon arrival, I wonder how I missed the shortcut.
