Using Fastmail as mailto:
Just got a new bespoke Windows 10 PC. I want to use Fastmail as my mailto: client but I can't get it set up. I know it should be easy, I did it once before. I downloaded T-bird and completed the data it asked for when I clicked on "setup existing account": name as in eml address, domain as in eml address and the same password that gets me into Fastmail. Each time T-bird tries to connect to Fastmail it says that it can't and that the name/password configuration is probably wrong.
Apparently FM became aware of my efforts and sent me and email containing a unique password to be used in trying to set up the account, but that did not cause Firefox to include FM as an option to use with mailto:
I have this working on my laptop. I set it up about about 6 years ago but I'm at a loss to figure out what's wrong.
