It would be great if Phoenix (and Mozilla) would allow you to use a third party mail client when you click on mailto links.

Please query for existing bugs before reporting new ones. Duplicate bugs waste valuable time that would have gone to making Phoenix better. The right thing here seems to me to be that we just use the system default which for GNOME linux would be implemented either at bug 140635 or bug bug 128668. If people want to override the system default or don't have a system default or don't use GNOME then they'll probably have to wait for the work over at bug 33282 which has a patch that implements a generic mechanism for handling any protocol with a helper. Please remember that bugzilla is not a user support tool. Please do not comment in any of these bugs (the kind that tend to get too noisy to be useful) unless you're actually working on fixing that problem. Thanks. I'm going to pick 33282 and dupe this bug there since that seems closest to what the original report was suggesting. (although I think having both and defaulting to the system setting first is the right way to go). *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 33282 ***

Asa: see bug 256707 for one reason there are so many duplicate bug reports.
