I have a new button in my app that will compose a new email message with a

I was hoping to find a way of asking the system in Cocoa what the active
user's default email client is and use the appropriate AppleScript. I don't
see this and may end up falling back to a preference (like iPhoto does).


Am I missing it?

What about LSGetApplicationForURL() or LSCopyApplicationURLsForURL () while passing a generic mailto: URL?
