<![CDATA[Default mailto link handler]]>I accidentally allowed gmail to open mailto links on pages and it has since become the default app for that. How can I change that and get back to Thunderbird as the default app for email links?

Gmail was there and I've removed it. Now Thunderbird opens the links again. Thanks a lot!

I can't tell because I have that disabled and an xfce desktop.

~/.config/mimeapps.list has this in both sections
x-scheme-handler/mailto=thunderbird.desktop;
