I'll try this.

wow, that's really cool. I believe the way this works is going to change drastically when necko lands so I'm reassigning to mscott for a sanity check and to track. Cc'ing Rich, since he might be involved in url dispatching, at least tangentially because of Mime.

Sounds like this needs to be fixed for PR1, so I added a note to the Status Whiteboard

This is a dup of another bug of mine, I have to dig up the number. We haven't hooked up url dispatching with necko yet. So you can't click on mailto, http, and other embedded links in the message window.

There is a main bug about URL dispatching assigned to browser group. I'll find it later for you.

This is the main URL dispatch bug: http://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=8628

Triage to M12
