30-Second Trick for Opening Mailto Links in Gmail

I recently reviewed Sidekick, which I like to use as a Gmail add-on. Today I received this tip from them in my Inbox, and surprisingly, this tip is exactly something that I've been wanting to know how to do. It's certainly a long-term problem which Google has apparently fixed. Namely, getting your e-mail links to actually open in Gmail. It seems like it should be simple, and it is if you have an email client like Microsoft Outlook or Mozilla Thunderbird. But what if you have Gmail?

This year, I have created a couple of tutorial videos and a set of print directions on how to transfer student (and staff) Google data from a district account to a home Google account . This transfer can include only specific selected folders (shown in the Method #1 video below) or your entire Google Drive (shown in the Method #2 video and the print directions below).
