Webmailer is a preference pane for setting mailto: parameters in OS X. Ever click on a mailto: link, only to scream in frustration as Apple Mail opens yet again? The curse of the webmail user is that there is no way to get around this problem. That is, until now.

Works perfectly on Mac OS 10.6.6. It is a necessary tool if you have web fetch mail accounts in addition to Apple Mail.

And for someone to rate it low because of an issue they don't even contact the programmer about should be blocked from being able to write reviews! (it took using a brand new user account on the programmer's computer to replicate my issue, so he does what it takes to fix the problem if you give him enough details)

If you use web fetch mail programs like Gmail, Yahoo! mail, Hotmail etc. in addition to Apple Mail, this application is a must have. The great thing about it is: when you shift-click on "Contact Us" in a website, on "Send Email" in the Address Book, on "Compose Mail" in Google Notifier etc. - a small window appears on your desktop where you can choose to use either Apple Mail or anyone of your web fetch mail programs. I'm writing this because I'm very surprised to see the small number of downloads and I can only assume it is due to ignorance.
