Sigh, forgive me if I've gone down this road before.

I want to use the new Yahoo Mail Beta.

So under Firefox applications, under the Mailto dropdown, I have Gmail, and two Yahoo mail choices. One gives me the 'classic' old mode (the one that is shown highlighted)..the other there newer version. (the link that has the purple Y.)

So if I want the NEW beta version to come up, I select 'classic mode' and then change it to beta by going to this website.
Yahoo! Mail

Fine.

But when I click a mailto link, I get a MAILTO showing up in the field. And you can't send an email with that there, you have to manually remove. How stupid is this? How does this get removed?

I have read this is a LONG KNOWN ISSUE. Considering how Yahoo is sinking, Yahoo Just Killed… Consumer Confidence In Them
....maybe their mail will become history.
