Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_12_5) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Chrome/58.0.3029.110 Safari/537.36

Steps to reproduce:

1. Receive an E-Mail with an attached HTML document.
2. Share (long tap) the HTML document with FireFox.
3. The error "The link you are trying to share cannot be shared. Only HTTP and HTTPS links can be shared." appears.


Actual results:

The browser is requested to open the URL file:///var/mobile/Library/Mail/IMAP-user@host/INBOX.imapmbox/Attachments/102345/2/test.html but FireFox rejects it.


Expected results:

The browser should open the file and load remote JS and CSS content, which is how it works on a PC and Mac.
