Set Gmail as default webmail client

« on: May 05, 2009, 07:39:19 PM »

Hi guys,

I just developed a user script (also available as an extension) that sets Gmail as default webmail client. It sets Gmail as default application when you click a mailto link. Here's a page to test.

I don't see this Java script, nor the extension. When I click your links, the main Google Chrome Board page comes back.

Update:
However, I managed to download your extension (GmailDefaultClient.crx), launched it, but nothing has changed. When I click a mailto link, the same old Outlook Express pops up.

But, there is a more simple and elegant way to handle mailto: calls in Google Chrome: install Google Talk and check the "Open Gmail when I click on email links" option in Settings.
