best-practices

I'm asking this as an opinion question. How does everyone treat email links opening in a new window if their default email client is web based?

This way? <a href="mailto:[email protected]">email me</a>. It will open fine for app based email clients but open in the same window for web based clients.

This way? <a href="mailto:[email protected]" target="_blank">email me</a>. It will open in a new tab for web based email clients but open a blank tab.

I cant really seem to find the best of both worlds. What does everyone else do?
