This needs to be addressed in Firefox really. Either it should handle mimetypes properly as per XDG spec out of the box or at least use xdg-email to invoke $emailclient.

IIRC latter is the only sensible possibility as the mimetype handling requires a lot of GNOME libraries. So I suppose firefox should invoke xdg-email unless GNOME integration is available.

Moving bug to firefox-3.0 source package.
