Firefox has 'Email link...' in it's File menu, as does little sister

The old Edge, upon clicking 'Share', presents only Windows 10 Mail,
some social media account, or a Microsoft app, none of which I
need/want. I wonder if the new Edge is enough Chromium-like that if
there's no 'Email link', it may accept the type configuration that
SRWare and Brave accept.

Since it's being customized by Microsoft, I'm sure Microsoft wants you
to keep using their own email client, so they would likely configure
it to at least go to Microsoft's clients by default.

No doubt, but since it's more Chromium-like, I'd like to hear from
someone who may have tried the above on the new version, since the older
Edge version is limited to Microsoft products for email. In other words,
is it possible to configure the Chromium-like Edge to use a non-Microsoft
email client as the default email client?


Short answer, no you can't. I've been using the chromium base Edge ever
since the Beta version was opened to the public back in November 2018. I
really like it, but that's one thing that I've complained about and
apparently those complaints fell on deaf ears.
