In my own use, I found the only way to get Emailer to respond to 'mailto' links involved a specially prepared AppleScript application to hand off those links to Emailer. I also had to disable (archive) Mail or it would intercept them. I'm content with that 'solution' as I use only Emailer,
but others would not find the arrangement acceptable.


I seem to recall in 10.4 Apple changed something and it is no longer possible to set Classic apps as default handlers for any GURL events (the event fired when you click a URL or email address link and your default application to handle that type opens).

I remember spending some time trying to get Emailer to be the "default" mail client and never had success. That is probably why you ended up needing to use an Applescript (that way, you can compile the Applescript as OS X native, allowing it to take the GURL event, it in turn passes the event to Emailer).
