[Evolution] Resetting mailto: to Evo
I use Gmail online purely for my genealogy, everything else I use Evo. I recently misunderstood the instructions for Gmail settings, and told it to use Gmail for mailto: (I thought this was for Gmail only, as that was the settings I was altering). I've reset the prefs in Chrome to mailto: = none, removed the handler completely, but nothing seems to to reset it to use Evo - when I click a mail address, it loads Chrome. I'm using Evo 2.30.3 on Ubuntu 10.10. TIA for any advice.

I'm using Evo 2.30.3 on Ubuntu 10.10. This has since changed in later GNOME releases, but I think on your system the mailto: handler is still stored in GConf as: /desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto/command Try changing the command value to evolution %s. This is easiest to do through gconf-editor (or in the panel menu under Applications - System Tools - Configuration Editor). You might need to install the gconf-editor package if it's not listed in the menu. If that doesn't work, I think the new location is: $HOME/.local/share/applications/mimeinfo.cache Just edit that file in a text editor.

Brilliant - that worked. Thanks!
