Re: [PATCH] Fix FAQ entry about mailto links.

[Max Nikulin]

Robert,

Thank you for pointing out that `org-link-mailto-program' should not be 
recommended in FAQ any more.

I prepared an alternative patch that recommends to customize Emacs 
variables at first. I hope, an example is safer now, however I can not 
test it on MacOS. Could you, please, review the patch, since I may miss 
something important from your point of view?

I am unsure if MailMate is acceptable since it is a proprietary 
application. Org is a part of *GNU* Emacs, so it may be better to 
mention some free mail user agent.

I am sorry, I missed that you suggested to customize the 
`org-link-parameters' variable, so function call is not necessary here.
