I was told to enter the following in the address bar and then a dropdown would appear to allow this but nothing happens. javascript:navigator.registerProtocolHandler('mailto','http://mail.live.com /secure/start?action=compose&to=%s','Livemail'); Mailto feature worked fine with 2.0 No easy add-on that works for it either. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. click on "mailto" button in any web page 2.IE opens at hotmail sign-in page 3.OR nothing happens (I've changed the behavior somehow) Actual Results: nothing now I tried changing it via javascript:navigator which apparently is disabled in FF 3.5 Expected Results: Opens hotmail sign in page in Firefox 3.5 (default browser) This is apparently a default behavior? I do NOT have a mail client installed nor do I want one. I want to manage my email in hotmail/live webmail on my browser as always. I do NOT want to do this in IE. I want to do this in Firefox.

OK so this just isn't possible and I've given up on it. Apparently "live" (hotmail) won't allow this. Thanks anyway.
