A similar approach is possible for Gnu Emacs, too. And in fact, just
to be able to call Emacs as action for "mailto:" in your browser you
wouldn't need GnuMAPI.
However, GnuMAPI gives you the possibility to send files with Emacs
directly from the application with that you are working on that
file. For example, when you have opened a file in Word you can use the
"File/Send to/Mail recipient (as Attachment) [sorry for maybe bad
translation, I have just a Word with German menu available]" menu
entry and Emacs is invoked with a new message window with that file
attached.
This works for all Windows applications that offer a "File/Send" or
"File/Send to" menu entry.
