redirect mailto command to local client

Hello,

we are looking for a possibilty to redirect mailto requests from the tsplus server to the local client.
Do you have any experience with that?

if you are developing the app which makes the mailto call yourself then there is a solution. However this solution will open a tab which won't close automatically on your local PC, but this is just a very small inconvienience.
You just pass the mailto URL to c:\wsession\urlooclient.exe as a parameter. You can test it via cmd for example. just paste this in your cmd:

Code: Select all

c:\wsession\urlonclient.exe mailto:test@test.com
With this method you can pass any URI like sip, callto, mailto etc. to your local PC.
I would be glad if TSPlus would improve their urltoclient solution because technically it is not a big problem to pass any URI to your local PC. It can be done with a few lines of code, so any URI call can be passed to a local desktop.

Hi Marlon,

this is a great hint. Works perfect (besides the new local Browser Tab).

On local side i installed a softphone (e.g. phoner lite) which takes the redirected URL call: sip:phone_number_to_dial and opens the softphone which start a call.

I agree, this should be implemented info TSplus, so users could make outbound-Calls directly from the Cloud-Desktop (TSplus) using their local microphone and headset.
