Please try this link (it is not a real link) and tell me what happens (it should just open your email program).

TIA

The same result. This has been discussed before. The 'mailto....' link only works if you have an email client and not webmail. This is not Xara-related.

When I click on the email link on your page, it asks me what program to use (Windows 10 suggests: Mail).

Using VIVALDI browser.
