Default mail client for url:mailto

[Jamie Kitson]

Hi, as rifleman pointed out I missed the second bit of
your msg, appologies, try this:

In My Computer, click Options (or Folder Options) on the
View menu, and then click File Types.
Click the URL:MailToProtocol line to select it, click
Edit, click Open in the Actions box, and then click Edit.
The command line that controls the program that is used
to open a MailTo Uniform Resource Locator (URL) appears
in the Application Used To Perform Action box.
