I use Yahoo in Chrome for email. How can I change Outlook from auto-starting?

1

My main email account is Yahoo. Whenever I click an email address in a website, it auto-starts Outlook. Can I configure Chrome to open a "compose message" window with that email address auto-filled at Yahoo.com instead of Outlook opening? My OS is Windows 7.

Install the Chrome extension Email Links To Yahoo.

Clicking on an email link will open up Yahoo email compose page.
