mailto: opening IMP

[Kevin Metzger]

In searching the archives, I found my question asked and the answer was some
custom code.  Anyone developed this?

below is the origional post:

I really don't see how that would be possible without writing a local
client wrapper that intercepted the mailto: call and started a new
IMP session in another browser instance.

Subject: show images inline - still cant get to work

Does anyone have this working?  I have tried setting all the appropriate
stuff in mime_drivers in both horde and imp but still no luck.

Can someone past the correct settings for these files to make this work?
Thank you
