WOW, you ROCK!!!! I have been looking for this for a LONG time, and this worked perfectly, even on my Mac. I have always been a huge fan of Firefox, but this even further makes me realize what an awesome program Firefox is. Hopefully if Yahoo ever changes the URL for composing emails, Firefox will update it automatically!

In Firefox 3.0.8 on Linux the setting is not available through the Tools menu, but can be found in Edit – Preferences – Applications.

As Chris mentioned below.. the entire mailto link pops up in the address field of Yahoo… maybe same in gmail.. don’t know.. Are these problems with Yahoo or with Firefox?

I followed the instructions and now when I click a web page mailto it does open the Yahoo mail compose window but the address and the subject is all jumbled together in the address field.
Any solution for this. It was a Craigslist web page.
