Clicking on a mailto link (the ones at https://www.scottseverance.us/mailto.html for instance) doesn't launch the mailto handler. Tried with the default mailto-handler in Gnome-shell (Thunderbird). The same link correctly launches Thunderbird in both Firefox and Chromium. Tested with Web 3.36.3 in Gnome Shell 3.36.4.
As far as I understand, WebKit is not responsible of handling clicking “mailto:” links so this would be a bug in Epiphany. I have reported it there: https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/issues/1324

I was told by the Epiphany team to report the bug to the WebKit team :-) (see https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/issues/1319) > I have reported it there: > https://gitlab.gnome.org/GNOME/epiphany/-/issues/1324 which is now a duplicate of #1319

Thanks everybody!
