+              To set the browser that opens when you click a link in
+              an email, open the GNOME preferences tool
+              (<menuchoice><guimenu>System</guimenu><guimenuitem>Settings</guimenuitem></menuchoice>
+            or <command>gnome-control-center</command>) and start the
+            <guilabel>File Associations</guilabel> tool. There, look under
+            <guilabel>Internet Services</guilabel>, select
+             <guilabel>World wide web (http)</guilabel>, and select
+             the browser of your choice. If you wish to use a 
+             browser other than the ones suggested, you will need to
+             enter the full shell command. For example you might use 
+             <userinput>mybrowser "%s"</userinput> to start the
+             mybrowser program at the right page.

+              For GNOME desktops, you can set
+              <application>Evolution</application> to be the default
+              mail client, so that it opens when you click a mailto:
+              link in web pages and help tools. To do that, open the
+              GNOME preferences tool and start the <guilabel>File
+              Associations</guilabel> tool.  There, look under
+              <guilabel>Internet Services</guilabel>, select
+              <guilabel>Electronic mail transmission
+              (mailto)</guilabel>, and select

+              For applications such as Mozilla and Netscape, which do
+              not use the GNOME preference tools, you will need to
+              find the protocol handler preference tool for that
+              application and enter <userinput>evolution
+            "%s"</userinput> as your choice for handling mailto links.
