How do i set bc to emails in mail
To set up your default email client to open .bc
files (which are actually plain text files containing Bitcoin Cash addresses) in Mail on a Mac, you'll need to follow these steps:
- Open Mail: Go to Applications > Mail, or use Spotlight to search for "Mail" and open it.
- Preferences: Click on Mail > Preferences (or press
Cmd +,
) to open the Mail preferences window. - General: In the preferences window, click on the "General" tab.
- Default email reader: In the "Default email reader" section, click on the dropdown menu next to "Default email reader" and select "Other..."
- Choose an application: In the "Choose an application" window, navigate to the location where your email client (e.g., Mail) is installed. For example, if you're using Mail, you can find it at
/Applications/Mail.app
. - Select Mail: Select the Mail application and click "Open".
- Save changes: Click "OK" to save your changes.
Now, when you double-click on a .bc
file, it should open in Mail, allowing you to easily create a new email with the Bitcoin Cash address as the recipient.
Note: If you're using a different email client, such as Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird, you'll need to follow similar steps to set it as the default email reader for .bc
files.
