I tried:

--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
$ xdg-email --version
xdg-email 1.1.0 rc1

$ cat /tmp/xdg-test
#!/bin/bash

echo "$@" > /tmp/xdg-test.log

$ xdg-email foo@example.org

$ cat /tmp/xdg-test.log
mailto:foo@example.org
--8<---------------cut here---------------end--------------->8---

Hmm...  Do you mean that I have to open a bug report?  I am not familiar
with GNU Emacs’ development customs, but a common sense suggests me that
a feature request had better be filed by one who could ground its
usefulness, while I hardy could.

Anyway, I think it worth to change it a bit more in order to make it try
to guess mime-type:
