[Bug 1960421] Re: webcal:// URLs do not open calendar application

[Olivier Tilloy]

Have you tried registering a custom protocol handler, as described here:
https://askubuntu.com/questions/514125/url-protocol-handlers-in-basic-
ubuntu-desktop/1023143#1023143 ?

I did try to pass e.g.
"webcal://calendar.google.com/calendar/ical/mozilla.com_dbq84anr9i8tcnmhabatstv5co%40group.calendar.google.com/public/basic.ics"
to thunderbird on the command line, and it didn't like it (failed to
even start). So I doubt there is support for it, at least as a protocol
handler. It does seem to know how to import them from within the
application though (see
https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1427588).

If you want better integration as a protocol handler, I suggest filing a
bug at https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/enter_bug.cgi#h=dupes|Thunderbird
