I tried to modify that before it posted...  Actually the "To" gets supplied
properly when clicking on a "mailto:" link, but "subject" doesn't get
filled in.  It's useless for using the "Send link" menu option, as neither
the subject or body are filled.  I gave up and decided to have it use GMail
as my mailer.

It's certainly a correct start.  Perhaps somebody else has an understanding
of Netscape's RDF format and knows how to supply the remaining parameters.
