patch

Hi,

The .desktop file should define MimeType=x-scheme-handler/mailto; to allow GNOME3 to use claws to be opened when a mailto: link is clicked

Hi,

Sorry for reopening this bug but the

Exec line should have contained a %U or %u to pass arguments to claws-mail

 -Exec=claws-mail
 +Exec=claws-mail %u

Not really sure about the difference between %U and %u and which one should be used here
