Package: mutt Version: 1.5.20-7 Severity: normal The script /usr/lib/mutt/mailto-mutt is supplied as a handler for mailto: urls, but mutt itself handles these urls just fine, even though it not exactly documented.
What's the rationale for having this extra script around? There is one useful thing the script does: open mutt in a separate terminal. But this could be easily achieved with this one-liner. | #!/bin/sh | exec x-terminal-emulator -e mutt "$@" On top of that, mailto-mutt doesn't handle body specifications properly. /usr/lib/mutt/mailto-mutt 'mailto:test?body=test' doesn't do anything, but mutt 'mailto:test?body=test' works just fine. Also, the information on how to configure firefox in the comments of mailto-mutt doesn't apply to firefox 3.x anymore.
