Thanks very much for the Browser Fairy suggestion.

At it's simplest, add a rule "URL contains mysite.example.org" and point 
that at the desired browser, the next time you click on a matching link 
in MailMate, it uses that browser.

It would be really convenient to be able to right click and select 
"Launch in Safari" rather than right clicking, selecting Copy, then 
switching to a Safari window, clicking in the URL bar, then pasting 
and hitting Return.


You could create a „service“ for each of your required browsers 
like described for Chrome here:

The shell script for Safari would be:

open "$1 -a /Applications\Safari.app"

[MlMt] Enhancement request: Right click on URL and launch non-default browser?

[Paul Sture]

I get regular email newsletters containing containing URLs from various 
sources.  Some of the websites work better in Firefox (my default 
browser), others work better in Safari.


It would be really convenient to be able to right click and select 
"Launch in Safari" rather than right clicking, selecting Copy, then 
switching to a Safari window, clicking in the URL bar, then pasting and 
hitting Return.


A simple left click on a URL should launch the default browser, as it 
currently does.


I envisage that others won't have the same setup as me, maybe they have 
more than two browsers. That is to say, the idea of one alternate 
browser would be sufficient for me, at the moment, but a more 
comprehensive enhancement would be the ability to specify "alternative 
browser #1", "alternative browser #2" ...


Note that DEVONthink Office sort of, kind of, has a facility like this, 
in that you can right click on a link and then select either the default 
app for that file type or a selection from all possible apps for that 
file type. That however can be very slow, since it goes through the 
process of seeing what apps you have on your system that can deal with 
that file type.  I am definitely not requesting something as 
comprehensive as that, it's too slow and you get offered a myriad of 
choices.
