We used to be able to block mailto: window on firefox from poping up when someone clicked on a mailing address, but upgraded to windows 10 and on some pdf files if we click on an email address add an email account pops up. How can we permanently disable firefox from doing this running on windows 10. Thank you in advance

:
- via address bar, use:
about:config

false
