<pre>This is a problem in Google Chrome as well. If you click on an email link in
Chrome, it will open another Chrome window, and since I do not have it
configured to use gmail in a browser, it will simply load the home page and do
nothing more.
Someone devised a workaround at

for getting xdg-email to respect the mail handler setting, but the next time
xdg-utils gets updated it will get wiped out. This change needs to be
integrated into xdg-utils itself</pre>
