[svlug] Re: Re: Firefox 0.9

[George Georgalis]

Aaaw heck, that wasn't so hard!

http://us.f525.mail.yahoo.com/ym/Compose?To=george@galis.org
(choose a domain from your own browser, it'll probably be closer)

but it doesn't work through session timeouts, in that case click again
when you login.

that was the easy part, next step, groak the info from a wrapper to
invoke netscape remote... I don't see a firefox option to set the
'mailto' program :-\
