My Firefox cannot open mailto: links to my Evolution email client.
Help?

Try:

cat >> ${HOME}/.config/firejail/firefox.local << EOF
noblacklist /var/mail
noblacklist /var/spool/mail
noblacklist ${HOME}/.bogofilter
noblacklist ${HOME}/.cache/evolution
noblacklist ${HOME}/.config/evolution
noblacklist ${HOME}/.gnupg
noblacklist ${HOME}/.local/share/evolution

whitelist /var/mail

I test it, and it isn't working still... @rusty-snake

[SkewedZeppelin]

@alexandre1985 can you fix the typo on the last line and try again?

[alexandre1985]

Yes, I didn't write the typo on my firefox.local @SkewedZeppelin

[alexandre1985]

If you give me the commands to create a firejail config file and test opening firefox and clicking on a mailto: link , I can do that on my system. To see if that makes mailto: links work.

I don't know if you are understanding what I mean

[rusty-snake]

What is the terminal output?

Have you setup your FF to open in evolution by default or to ask?

Try to add ignore nodbus and ignore apparmor to the firefox.local above.

Try to add ignore nodbus and ignore apparmor to the firefox.local above.

It works now @rusty-snake.
😉

[rusty-snake]

greate, if you want, you can try to findout if it works with only one ignore (is more secure).

[alexandre1985]

I only need ignore nodbus.
Thank you @rusty-snake 🥇
