Is there a way that Web Outlook can be made to work with the email a link to this page button? I can not set my default mail program to Web Outlook in Windows 10. Thanks.

you can add your web outlook to the mail app in windows 10 so you can use it there, otherwise it isn't possible to edit it to utilize a web based webmail unfortunately,

your other option would be to manually copy the link and mail it to yourself / whoever you want to mail it to, which is less ideal.

Sorry for the inconvenience

See this thread about how to register a web bases email service. I don't know whether this still works for Outlook.

I created an extension. It has its own right-click menu item instead of integrating with Email Link.

https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/outlook-mail-email-link-fix/

If you try it, let me know if you run into any problems with it.

I had tried your addon a couple of days ago it prompts me log on the outlook so I do and it will allow me to send just one link. Then I get this message (you may close this window) and can not send another . The next one I try and send directs me to outlook.live.com again. I have to log in again and it dead ends. After logging in it has (you may close this window) again and does not prompt me to send an email. This is my corporate account at work I do not know if that makes any difference as it allows me to forward once but not again. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance.

Hi ranchero60, do you get that same screen when you double-click a message in your inbox to open it in a new window? If so, create a cookie exception. See the following thread about that, but instead of outlook.live.com, create the exception for either outlook.office.com or outlook.offce365.com, whichever one you are using:

Does that help?

Oh, and also, to send messages via your work account, go to the Add-ons page, Extensions panel, click the extension title to access the details page, go to Options, and change to using either office.com or office365.com, whichever is applicable.

I ticked the Office 365 option and it allowed me to send 2 links. It also appears that this is some type of intermittent issue as I just tried to send 6 different sites while this email was being written with a 4 failures (of the 4 failures they were not back to back there we a couple of good sends mixed in there) then it went back to you may now close this window when I tried to send a immediately without sending it or even prompting me to. The double clicking of an email still works to open one with no problems what so ever. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Sorry for the delay. Do you have Firefox set to delete cookies and site data when it closes? If so, you need to create an "Allow" exception for

https://outlook.office365.com

and/or

https://outlook.office.com

(depending on which one you use) as depicted in the attached screenshot.
