Preferences "Advanced"->"System" has a check list "Windows should use Mozilla to
handle these protocols". This list includes http, https, ftp, chrome, and
gopher. Shouldn't it also include "news:"? As it is, although I have set the
preference to "use Mozilla as the default mail application" ("Mail & News" pref
tab), if I try to open a "news:" URL from outside Mozilla (e.g., through a
command line: "rundll32 url.dll,FileProtocolHandler <a news: url>"), Windows
will try to open it using Outlook.
