	Jon-o, thanks for the reply.

	An update:   I was finally able to get Mozilla to send mail when clicking on
an e-mail link. However, still no luck in Galeon.

	I did as you said: Preferences/handlers/programs.  There it says to use Gnome
for mail. Now when I click on an e-mail link I get the following error message:
"Galeon can't handle this protocol and no GNOME default handler is set."

	OK, coach.  :o)  Now what? How do I "set" a GNOME default handler?

	Thanks.
