mailto link not working correctly

more options

When hovering over a "mailto" link, I see what is expected in the status bar, namely something like: mailto:[email protected]

However, when clicking the link, and choosing Yahoo! as the application, one of two things wrongly happens 1) Yahoo! mail is brought up, but the "To" address includes "mailto:" at the beginning or 2) a Windows search dialog box appears

Workaround: install GmailDefaultMaker. Run the install and choose to setup Yahoo Mail, then change Firefox action to "handlemailto".
