Hi Thierry,
I now use Vivaldi as my default web browser, as I was unable to get Firefox and Thunderbird to play nice. I have both Vivaldi stable and Snapshot installed.
If you can set Kmail as the 'mailto' protocol handler, there is a Chrome extension named 'Share link via email' that will launch whatever e-mail program is set as the default 'mailto' handler. This option is in the extension's settings as 'Default email client'. I have this extension installed in both Vivaldi versions.

Thank you for the hint. I'll take a look at how to set the protocol handler, but a first try seems to indicate it's not what I was looking for:
I installed the extension and set it up to use Gmail
If I ask to send something with Gmail, it does use Gmail
If I click on an email address, it opens thunderbird

Thunderbird must be set as the default mailto handler on your system. If that can be changed, it needs to be changed to Kmail. The settings read that it should launch whatever is set for that default.
