--- Comment #3 from James E. LaBarre <j.e.labarre at gmail.com> ---
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
http://forums.bodhilinux.com/index.php?/topic/3063-solved-chromium-mailto-link-doesnt-open-on-thunderbird-xdg-email/
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
