ssamanoori, it really is any webpage with a mailto link. I've been having this problem for a while, but don't remember how many versions back it started.

@ssamanoori I've only seen this issue on FreeBSD. Can you please try on FreeBSD 10.3? Thanks!

If you're still unable to reproduce, I'll try to reproduce on a clean profile with a screencast.

yonas.yanfa@, can you reproduce this issue on Window, Linux, macOS, or Android?  We don't support FreeBSD officially.

Can you reproduce this by typing mailto:hello@example.com into the address bar of Chrome?

tkent@chromium.org@, thanks, I can't reproduce this anywhere else. I'll file a bug with the FreeBSD ports maintainer. Cheers,
