Is it just me, or Mail.app no longer supports creating message links to individual email messages* when dragging over Fantastical.app or Calendar.app? I have been using them for years, and now I cannot easily create them anymore…

Update while writing this: Just tried to drag an email message to Notes.app, and there I get the email subject styled with an hyperlink to the email, so I can use that to get the link and paste it elsewhere, but it is painful…

*Links are of the form `message: %[email protected]%3E`. I first learned about them in this post from @gruber on @daringfireballhttps://daringfireball.net/2007/12/message_urls_leopard_mail which was subsequently linked 15 years later: https://daringfireball.net/linked/2022/08/01/voorhees-shortcut-apple-mail-links

‘message:’ URLs in Leopard Mail

The new version of Mail in Leopard introduces a ‘message:’ URL pseudo-protocol that allows you to refer to individual messages in Mail from other applications.
