Actual Results:  
Infinite loop

Do you click the mailto: link in the Mozilla Browser or do you use another
browser? Have you installed Mozilla MailNews (you can see a menu-item under
Window-Mail & Newsgroups)? Can you look up under the URL about:config what
network.protocol-handler.external.mailto is set to? If it set to true, can you
try setting it to false (double-click on it), does this solve the problem? If
yes, this is Bug 198547
