Yes, but it's non-trivial.  I have Netscape set up to spawn Mutt when I
click a mailto link.

You need to compile up a plugin for netscape.  The stuff at:

  http://developer.netscape.com/software/sdks/mailnewssdk.zip

is a good place to start.  It includes example code for Elm.  I found
a version of this that included code for Mutt as well as several other
mail programs, but nowhere in the tarball does it say where it came from,
and I can't find it again, so I've put it in my FTP directory:

  ftp://ftp.exit109.com/users/jeremy/netscape-altmail-0.1.tar.gz

It required a significant amount of hacking to make it work, though that
may have been system-dependent problems.
