Mailfrom 0.2.5 was released today. This version fixed a defect to provide Firefox 3.6 compatibility and provides support for Windows Live Hotmail.
I’ve realised for some time that Firefox now provides limited out-of-the-box support for Yahoo Mail and GMail as the target for mailto links. So I’m going to change the purpose of mailfrom from replacing the built-in functionality to enhancing it.
As an experiment, I’ve moved the source code management to github. I’ve not used git before and I’m interested to see what the fuss is about!
Hi. I downloaded this but when I right-click to send a link now, nothing happens. Can you help me? Thank you very much.
Hi Bernadette,
Mailfrom only works for mailto links, it doesn’t open Send Link in your webmail client. However, that is a good idea and I’ll add it to the roadmap.
Git is awesome as you can do local version control, it’s easier for other people to fork your project and do development on it as well as being able to massively split a project amongst developers and then merge it all back in nicely.
Watching you github sir!
I shall be moving modifyheaders to github soon as well. I’m very impressed with Git and how easy it makes collaborative code management.
