with windows 8.* claws must be in the registered applications to
be usable as a mailto:protocol handler in the system "default apps"
settings, it seem to work fine with the following register changes:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00


[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Claws-Mail.Url.mailto]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Claws-Mail.Url.mailto\shell]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Claws-Mail.Url.mailto\shell\open]

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Claws-Mail.Url.mailto\shell\open\command]
@="C:\\Program Files (x86)\\Claws Mail\\claws-mail.exe --compose %1"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\Claws Mail\Capabilities]
"ApplicationDescription"="Claws email client"
"ApplicationIcon"="C:\Program Files (x86)\Claws Mail\claws-mail.exe,0"
"ApplicationName"="Claws Mail"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Clients\Mail\Claws Mail\Capabilities\URLAssociations]
"mailto"="Claws-Mail.Url.mailto"

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\RegisteredApplications]
