I open a pdf file with club members names and emails. I used to be able to click on the members email and a outlook box would appear with the email address .

I have a list of names and email addresses (250) and in a previous version of firefox I would go on the web page and when I would place the curser over the members email address and click it would automatically bring up an Outlook email to send box with the members email address already listed and ready for me to enter any information. This new firefox version (19) just lets the curser go across the email address and nothing happens when I click. How do I get the previous feature back?

Current Firefox versions have enabled a new build-in PDF Viewer and that viewer doesn't have all the features that the Adobe Reader has.

You can change the action for Portable Document Format (PDF) from Preview in Firefox to use the Adobe Reader or set to Always Ask.

You can set the pdfjs.disabled pref to true on the about:config page to completely disable the build-in PDF viewer and use the Adobe Reader instead.
