Ok, just tested those 4 steps by myself and theres really no mailto
item, but if i click on a mailto adress then thunderbird is
automatically connected (without asking for an application even)... hm,
and claws-mail doesn't do this?
The item is still not there but mailto works, btw my previously
thunderbird item was probably from an old install.
