Doesn't look like you can do it in Netscape itself. But here's a hack:
1. Right-click mailto: URL and Copy to Clipboard
2. You're using Sawmill, aren't you? Define a key to grab mailto: URL
from clipboard, trim off the mailto: part (maybe handle ?subject=
and ?body= as well) and fire up mutt. (Or put a button on your GNOME
panel to do this).
Then contribute No2 back to Sawmill and we'll all mail happily-ever-after
when we get the next Sawmill release...
Actually, come to think of it, it would be nice if you could read the X
clipboard within Sawmill's extension language. Hmmm...
