For future reference...

Mozilla 1.6 was released the other day.  I downloaded it and
built it, and found that, by setting a couple of preferences,
we can configure it to use evolution for mailto: links.
However, it still uses the mozilla mail client to handle the
"Send Page..." action; it might be feasible to change the source
to do something better, but I won't investigate that until/unless
we actually plan to upgrade.
