(Solved) Mutt sends an empty email when I click on a mailto: link in Abrowser

When I click on a mailto: link in Abrowser, Mutt sends an empty email.

To fix this, so that Abrowser opens a terminal window with Mutt when I click on a mailto: link, I did:

• click on the hamburger menu in Abrowser,
• then click on Settings,
• then on the right hand-side menu click on General,
• next, scroll down to the table titled Applications,
• look for the row mailto in the column titled Content Type
• in the Action column select Use mutt (default) (appended with an icon that looks like a glass of wine to the left).

This is for Abrowser version 123.0.1

$ abrowser -v
Mozilla Firefox 123.0.1
