Make Gmail Your Firefox Default E-Mail Client
Posted by admin on April 1, 2009
There are some things in life that I just take for granted. Having e-mail links (mailto) in Firefox open up Gmail was one of them, until I had to start all over with a new computer at work.
To associate Gmail quickly with mailto links in Firefox, open up Firefox and go to Tools | Options | Applications. Then scroll down until you see the row with the “mailto” content type, and select “Use Gmail” from the list of available options next to it.
Then click OK and get out of there.

Hope that helps.
