User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; Intel Mac OS X 10_15_7) AppleWebKit/605.1.15 (KHTML, like Gecko) Version/18.6 Safari/605.1.15
Steps to reproduce:
- Configure Thunderbird as the default mail client on macOS
- Load https://www.w3docs.com/snippets/html/how-to-create-mailto-links.html in Safari
- Click any of the "Send Email" links
Actual results:
Thunderbird comes to the foreground but nothing else happens.
Expected results:
A new message composition window should open with the email address(es) in the links pre-filled in the To: field.
This is a regression. I'm not sure exactly when the behaviour changed, but I'm pretty sure it was working in the previous LTS before I updated to 140.

Same result if the link is clicked in Firefox, BTW.

Hartmut, is this something you might be able to look at?

If this is a Mac-specific problem, then I am not due to a lack of hardware. However, I could imagine that it has something to do with Bug 1956258.
Reporter, please test with Thunderbird 140.1.1 ESR as soon as it is released.
