Package: mail-notification
Version: 3.0.dfsg.1-10+b1

mail-notification looks at the GNOME desktop preference for
/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto/ in order to figure out which mail
program to invoke when one right-clicks on the icon and selects the
"Mail Reader" option.

When I set the corresponding option to icedove, the menu entry does
indeed launch icedove. However, when I set it to mutt nothing happens.
Here is my ~/.gconf/desktop/gnome/url-handlers/mailto/%gconf.xml:

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<gconf>
        <entry name="needs_terminal" mtime="1176309996" type="bool" 
value="true">
        </entry>
        <entry name="enabled" mtime="1156460065" type="bool" value="true">
        </entry>
        <entry name="command" mtime="1176309996" type="string">
                <stringvalue>mutt %s</stringvalue>
        </entry>
</gconf>

Grepping through the source code reveals that mail-notification doesn't even
look at the /needs_terminal setting, and doesn't call
gnome_execute_terminal_shell() under any circumstance.
