Subject: mailto urls in text/html

Message-ID: <84iq0emduz.fsf@davestoy.home> (raw)

In a multipart/alternative environment with text/plain and text/html parts I now am set up with html via gnus-w3m by default.  Today I had occasion to try following a mailto link but nothing happened.  If I switched to the text/plain view, I get a button for the email link and am able to follow it (a message-mode buffer opens).  I'm not sure how to expect it to work via gnus-w3m.  Normally I'm set up to follow links via browse-url which goes to firefox, and works for http and ftp links just fine.  I do have firefox set up to run a script that calls gnuclient to open a message-mode buffer (firing up a new xemacs if there isn't an existing gnuserv running) so ugly as that might be I would have expected to see a firefox window along with message, but nothing.  It's not clear to me how gnus-w3
 m is implemented.  I'm happy to step through functions, but I don't know which to look at.

Thanks,
