We have just introduced the MS Communicator for communication internally and also for external calls. I recently noticed that I am informed of missed calls by mail. To my pleasant surprise I was able to click on the tel:+49891234567 link in the mail and Thunderbird started the MS Communicator automatically.
OK - How about implementing this also in the address book?
Currently the numbers are not clickable - only mail and the web page.
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. Open Address book
2. Click on address entry
3. Try to click on phone number
Actual Results:
Nothing happens
Expected Results:
Should start the external program defined in the OS for the handling of phone numbers.
The address book can handle the links already as a web address of the form tel:+4989... calls the OS's tel: Handler.
One suggestion would be to be able to prefix phone numbers with a protocol (in the preferences). If set then display the phone number as a link and run the appropriate application.
