I'm having the same problem. I actually only began to explore this
option when I read Victoria's original post.
according to evolution's man page:
===========================================
To send mail to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
evolution mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
To use Evolution as the handler for mailto: links in GNOME
applications, set the GNOME URL handler in the GNOME Con�
trol Center to be:
evolution "%s"
(The similar approach works for Mozilla and other applica�
tions.)
============================================
putting evolution "%s" in the GNOME control centre's URL handler section
doesn't seem to have an effect on Galeon. Mailto links simply don't
work.
putting evolution "%s" in Galeon's Mail Handler field under Settings ->
Preferences -> Programs also doesn't seem to work.
I can replicate the original program but putting evolution mailto:"%s";
in the field and then evolution pops up with no address in the To:
field.
Furthermore, if the mailto link contains something like:
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]?subject=This is a test
...then the subject of the email appears in the To: field.
Any further ideas on how to get this working?
Thanks.
