Add full DESKTOP_SESSION checking to xdg-email

I know in some cases, there may be good reason for the inconsistency, but I
think they should be the same with regards to handling the DESKTOP_SESSION
environment variable.  

I'm using a combination of xfce components with Awesome WM, and I need to set
DESKTOP_SESSION=xfce to get xdg-open to work properly.  After applying this
patch, xdg-email will respect the same variable.  I basically just yanked and
pasted from xdg-open.
