Then, it looks like mis-configured `browse-url'.
Check your configuration.
Here are some steps I tried following your advice.
(1) I eliminated all customizations that involved `browse-url' from my
configuration and restarted Emacs (Emacs 28.2, Org 9.6.6).
(2) I executed (browse-url "mailto:[email protected]";) and the buffer to edit
an email appeared.
(3) I executed (browse-url "https://orgmode.org/";) and the Org Mode site opened
in Firefox.
(4) I executed (customize-set-variable 'browse-url-mailto-function nil) and then executed
(browse-url "mailto:[email protected]";). The result gave the same error
messages.
(5) I quit Emacs and ran `emacs -q' (Emacs 28.2, Org 9.5.5).
(6) I executed (browse-url "mailto:[email protected]";) and the buffer to edit
an email appeared.
(7) I executed (browse-url "https://orgmode.org/";) and the Org Mode site opened
in Firefox.
(8) I executed (customize-set-variable 'browse-url-mailto-function nil) and then executed
(browse-url "mailto:[email protected]";). The result gave the same error
messages.
I'm not sure how my configuration can be at fault when `emacs -q' gives the
same result. I'm not sure what to do now.
