The instructions on how to make the script are right on the mozex website.
It can be copied and pasted. Just make a batch called thunderbird-mailto.sh
and call it with mozex.
#!/bin/sh

export MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME=/opt/thunderbird
if [ $(ps aux | grep thunderbird | wc -l) -gt 4 ]; then
# thunderbird is running (thunderbird est lance)
$MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/thunderbird -remote "mailto($1?subject=$2)"
else
# thunderbird is not running (thunderbird n'est pas lance)
$MOZILLA_FIVE_HOME/thunderbird -P default -compose
mailto:$1?subject=$2;
fi
