Make Zoho Mail your mail client in Firefox 3.x

Are you using Zoho Mail and want to make it your default mail client in Firefox 3.x? Login to Zoho Mail and copy-paste the following URL in your browser address bar.

javascript:window.navigator.registerProtocolHandler("mailto","http://mail.zoho.com/mail/compose.do?extsrc=mailto&mode=compose&tp=zb&ct=%s","ZMail")

Click on "Add Application" which appears underneath the address bar when prompted from the browser and in the pop-up window that opens, set ZMail as your option.

Now, whenever you click on a mailto:johndoe@abcinc.com link on a web page, it'll open up a Zoho Mail 'Compose' window.

  1. This doesn't seem to be working anymore. I get "Oops. We are unable to process your request." when I try to send a link. It worked fine last week.

  3. Works in Firefox v3.5, if I paste the above Javascript snippet into address bar, where mail.zoho.com is already open. If I do it in any other window, a "security exception" is thrown.

  5. Hi there!Thx a lot. But is it possible to open the compose windows in a new tab? Would be nice if I could keep the other page open. :)
