I use a program called MultiBrowser for this purpose: http://sites.google.com/site/tesseractsoftware/multibrowser
You install the app along with its associated pref pane and set it as the system's default browser. (So it works not only with Mailplane, but most other non-browser applications.) To make Mailplane open from mailto: links, you have to open Apple's Mail.app, go into its Preferences and set the "Default email reader" to Mailplane. Unfortunately there are some areas of the OS that don't respect that setting, but it does work with browsers and the system Address Book.
