Title:
  xdg-email fails to load mail client

Status in xdg-utils package in Ubuntu:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Environment
  ==========

  In Xubuntu 13.04 (Raring Ringtail) xdg-email fails and presents an
  error dialog stating 'Unable to detect the URI-scheme of "mailto:";.'.

  I observed this problem when using "Simple Scan" in this environment.

  The problem is that exo-open does not support the mailto URI.

  Versions this problem occurs in
  ===============================

  Xubuntu 13.04 uses version 1.0.2 of xdg-utils.

  This problem also occurs in 1.1.0 rc1 of xdg-utils.

  How to reproduce
  ================

  Run xdg-email from command line in Xubuntu 13.04 instead of the mail
  client being displayed you get an error dialog as discussed above.

  Fix
  ==

  I have located the source of the problem and submitted patches for
  both 1.0.2 and 1.1.0rc1 upstream. See the following bug report for
  details.
