I would like to set mailto: links to either open in AOL webmail, or to always ask, and present AOL webmail as an available option. It presently always opens in the Gmail app, then I close that, copy the address, go to the AOL page, start a new message, and paste the address. It seems a bit tedious. How can I set Firefox to do what I would like, instead?

Hi

If you open the Android Settings app (tyically a cogwheel icon) and search for Default, you should see an option for Default apps. There is a link at the bottom of the list for Opening links in which you can set the application preferances for various links.

I hope this helps.
