I have changed my default application for Emails to use mutt. 'Run in terminal' is checked. Still, all email links (also from command line via kde-open5) are opened using kmail, ignoring my change. Other changes of default applications (File manager, web browser) do work. My system is openSUSE Tumbleweed
Somewhat similar maybe: ========================= I'm running an up to date Arch Linux 64bit, KDE Plasma 5.12.4, KDE Frameworks 4.44.0, Qt 5.10.1 and kernel 4.15.14-1. I wish to have Thunderbird as my default email application. But when in Systems Settings->Personalization/Applications/Default Applications clicking the "..." button and then finding and choosing Thunderbird only results in a blank empty space where "Thunderbird ...." should be. What gives?

Sorry, I meant KDE Frameworks 5.44.0 naturally!

Can you check Can you check the output of: xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/mailto
I just changed it to kate (just to try) and it didn't change. I'd say the whole URI scheme part is not tied to the default applications logic.
It is. Please provide your ~/.config/mimeapps.list I can confirm that changing the setting doesn't work here, it writes into [Default Applications] but Thunderbird set itself to [Added Associations]
I don't see anything changing there: --- [Added Associations] application/x-designer=designer-2.desktop;designer.desktop; video/x-matroska=vlc.desktop;mplayer.desktop;org.kde.dragonplayer.desktop; text/plain=org.kde.kate.desktop; [Default Applications] application/x-designer=designer-2.desktop; video/x-matroska=vlc.desktop; x-scheme-handler/tg=telegramdesktop.desktop
woodstock:~% xdg-mime query default x-scheme-handler/mailto org.kde.kmail2.desktop As mentioned in post#1, Settings->Default Applications->Email Client is 'mutt %u' with 'Run in terminal' checked. Plasma 5.13.5 / plasma-framework 5.49.0 (Tumbleweed 20180916)
Well it's all working now - for me at least - while using: Qt: 5.11.2 KDE Frameworks: 5.50.0 Plasma 5.13.5, kernel 4.18.9
