With my configuration --
Windows 7 Ultimate
SeaMonkey 2.46
Thunderbird 52.1.1 --
I can select a mail-to link in a Web page displayed by SeaMonkey and get
a Thunderbird compose window. To do that, I had to take the following
steps:
1. For SeaMonkey, I set the preference variable
network.protocol-handler.external.mailto to "true".
2. For Thunderbird, I checked the checkbox for making Thunderbird my
default E-mail application when I installed Thunderbird. For an
already-installed Thunderbird, I think (not sure) that same preference
variable should be "false".
3. For Windows, I used Set Default Programs to select Thunderbird for
E-mail and newsgroups. In Windows 7, I reached Set Default Programs by
first setting my Control Panel to view ALL items. There, I selected
[Internet Options > Programs > Set programs > Set your default programs].
I believe #1 and #3 are necessary. #2 is a good thing, too.

Consider:
* Most state mandate that drivers have liability insurance.
* Employers are mandated to have worker's compensation insurance.
* If you live in a flood zone, flood insurance is mandatory.
* If your home has a mortgage, fire insurance is mandatory.
Why then is mandatory health insurance so bad??
