Every Geek uses Gmail… it’s pretty much required.

at the beginning of the file like this: .open_mailto.sh.

You’ll have to change the path in the preferences, of course.

Set Gmail as Default Mail Client in Ubuntu

To test it out…

I clicked the contact link on my page… and it immediately opened in Gmail.

Seems like Gmail’s login redirector won’t kick off the send mail page.

But then again… why aren’t you logged into Gmail?

Update: Changed to point to a script so that the mailto: tag would be removed.

Thanks VERY much to Mr Linux for not just noticing, but giving me the working script.
