No. From RFC 2369[2]:

    A list of multiple, alternate, URLs MAY be specified by a comma-
    separated list of angle-bracket enclosed URLs. **The URLs have order of
    preference from left to right.** The client application should use the
    left most protocol that it supports, or knows how to access by a
    separate application.

We are viewing on a web browser.  Thus, by definition, a HTTP URL is  
supported.  So we show ONLY the first element we support when reading  
left-to-right.  Google is telling us that it prefers we post to groups  
via the web (for obvious reasons) than via e-mail so we need to honor  
that preference.

> - Prefer the mailto Token over any url token

No. See above.

However, when replying, we obviously need to grab the e-mail address.   
So this part needs to be fixed.
