href="mailto:[email protected]"

The above code snippet on an anchor tag should open a default mail client on any system but now it's going to an external URL "https://sso.secureserver.net/?realm=pass&app=ox&saas=0&region=am2"

You can try with any of the old web pages you've built, It goes to this URL all of a sudden.

Does anyone know why?

Its really weired

It must be a redirection set from your browser/OS. Check what is your default email client in browser.

So as most of you guys said it was configured in my mail setting's / prefrences. So google chrome was set as default mail client and it went to the godaddy URL.

I followed https://support.apple.com/en-in/HT201607 to get it fixed and everthing is working smooth now! Thanks Everyone!

How to change your default email app

1. Make sure that the other email app is installed. Although you might be able to use a web browser for email (webmail), a web browser isn't an email app.
2. Open the Mail app.
3. Choose Mail > Preferences, then click General.
4. Choose an email app from the ”Default email reader” menu.
