Setting Outlook Web Access as default mail client in Firefox
I realize that this isn't really a Linux question, but it does have a direct bearing on my ability to use Linux effectively at work, so here goes...
The company that I work for is nice enough to let me use Linux for work, but they use Outlook. I've been using Outlook Web Access (OWA) as my mail client, which is more or less acceptable. The only problem is that whenever I click on a mailto link or use the "Send Link" menu option in firefox, I'm prompted to use evolution. Since connecting to an exchange server through evolution seems to be sketchy at best, I would like to set OWA as my default mail client. I'm using Firefox 3.6.13 Here's what I've found so far: Default mail client can be found at Code:
Edit Menu -> This shows two options by default: Yahoo! Mail Each of these shows how to launch that service. For Gmail: Code:
https://mail.google.com/mail/?extsrc=mailto&url=%s Code:
http://compose.mail.yahoo.com/?To=%s Code:
https://<server name>/owa/?cmd=compose... a) does anyone know the URL parameters to compose a mailto in Outlook Web Access else b) can someone give me a decent pointer for where to get this information? |
A little experimentation shows that the following URL will give me a new untitled message:
Code:
https://<email server>/owa/?ae=Item&a=New&t=IPM.Note |
