I have a mailto link in my HTML. The HREF is
<a href="mailto:?to=&body=AAA,&subject=BBB">MAIL</a> In other words, I am specifying body and subject, but not recipient.
In Chrome on Ubuntu, clicking this produces an dialog with a error
Unable to detect the URI-scheme of "mailto:?body..... Note that Firefox opens Thunderbird correctly for the same link.
How do I code this link so it works?
Chrome 34.0.1847.137 Ubuntu 13.10

If you want Chrome and Gmail to open mailto links for you by default, make sure Google Chrome is picked as the default client on either OS. In Firefox, you can also specify which client should handle mailto links. Click on the menu button -> Preferences.
If I understand the definition right this should work:
<a href="mailto:?to=&body=AAA,&subject=BBB">MAIL</a> At least it does work in Chrome 36 on OSX…
