Opera for MacRE: Opera spontaneously becomes the mail client by default
To add to bad-badger post above (this ~ so far ~ has worked for me)...
-
select: "Do not allow any sites to handling protocols" in Opera Preferences (privacy and security)
- Go to "Manage Handlers..." (just below the above 1.) and select "(none)" listed next to "mailto" type
-
then: https://forums.developer.apple.com/thread/14502 (use Terminal command)
- then: open Mail.app > Preferences > General and select your preferred email client from the drop down menu.
Thanks bad-badger.

Opera for MacRE: Opera spontaneously becomes the mail client by default
Sorry... it did not work. I thought it did but once I re-opened Opera it made itself the default email client once again.
Does anyone from Opera read this forum?

Opera for MacRE: Opera spontaneously becomes the mail client by default
I am having the same issue ~ once I open Opera it changes the default email client to Opera (why is it chamging my email client???) ~ it prevents me from using Opera on a normal everyday basis.
