Agreed, not quite perfect but at least it doesn't open Mail.
thank you!

How can I change default applications through the terminal or in CLI?
1 project | /r/MacOS | 11 Dec 2022

I installed RCDefaultApp some time ago and surprisingly it still runs well under Monterey Settings. I don't use it often but when you need to get into default apps then it is great. However it hasn't been updated since 2009 and I don't know where you can get it or even if it will install. This https://github.com/Lord-Kamina/SwiftDefaultApps/releases seems to be more active although I haven't tried it myself.
reset default apps back to defaults?

OpenIn can also set itself as the default handler for specific file types. One way to change this is, in the Finder, to locate a file of the target file type (say .txt) and press Cmd-I to get the info screen. There you will see “Open with”. Changing this will change the default handler for that one file. If you want to change the default handler for all files of that type, click “Change All…”. There are other ways to do this as well, probably not worth it if you only have a few file types to update.
Is there any alternative to Mac Set Default Apps (MSDA)?
