Hello Joshua
Why don't you simply set up your Applet in the SystemPrefs, tab Email as you
Standard Email app. I don't know, which event it will get, but every Mailapp
will open a new mail window with the adress (so it would be something like
an open event with the mail adress as a parameter...).
Idon't know, if this will work for you, but it is worth a try :-)
Bye Michael

You can try changing all the necessary flags: creator, (you can delete both

FREF & BNDL) and "plst" (look for your app's "CFBundleSignature").

But I'm not sure you can handle a mailto with a "GURLMAIL". I think you
