Hi, I'd like to get a button for change the by default URL of gmail in PM.
I'd like to change gmail to gmail basic (it use html, rapid load, without flash buttons) but I can not change it
, maybe with a button <change URL> I could change from the default URL https://mail.google.com/mail/?extsrc=mailto&url=%s to https://mail.google.com/mail/u/0/h/ks81rxuubcco/?&
a screenshot:

Thank you and Regards!
Mainly I use a NetBook with :Linux Mint 21 x86_64 shell bash Resolution 1024x600 DE Cinnamon 5.4.. Gnome terminal on CPU: Intel Atom N2600 (4) @ 1.600GHz GPU: Intel Atom Processor D2xxx/N2xx

You can edit "mimeTypes.rdf" located in the PM profile folder.

I was gonna suggest the URL Rewriter add-on - https://addons.palemoon.org/addon/url-rewriter/, but Kris_88's suggestion sounds better to me. FWIW, I haven't tested my suggestion so I don't even know if it would work. I think it would, an URL is an URL no matter what protocol it uses. That's what my simple minded mind says anyway.
