mailto: links check a preference network.protocol-handler.external.mailto and if
that is true then mailto: links will always launch the external mailer, even if
Mail is installed. However File/New/Message and File/Send Link only check to see
if Mail is installed in which case they will never launch an external mailer.

One way of determining whether mailto: links will launch the external mailer is
to get the IO service, then use if (ioService.getProtocolHandler("mailto")
instanceof Components.interfaces.nsIExternalProtocolHandler) ...
Silly me :-[
