Launching mailto links doesn't use Firefox's helper app setup. It just tells the operating system to launch a mail link. Firefox does nothing related to mail internally. You can't change how Firefox handles mailto links without a complicated extension. It would be nice if it were just a setting in about:config or mimetypes.rdf, but it isn't.
Sometimes, the impossible can become possible, if you're awesome!
would have been tooo great.
C'est dommage.

The link isn't a file, it's a full URL (or maybe URI).
