I created the file

user_pref("network.protocol-handler.app.mailto","/home/peter/firefox.mailto.sh");
Yet about:config in firefox lacks the
network.protocol-handler.app.mailto
record.
Any ideas?
Thanks, Peter Easthope
In my Firefox about:config I have:
network.protocol-handler.app.mailto
/usr/bin/thunderbird
and it works.

Not sure why user.js is not working (did you look in prefs.js to see if
your mailto entry was copied?). You can try to shut down all instances
of firefox and update prefs.js directly. You could also try to
right-click on about:config and add the mailto entry from there.
