Bit of additional info here, the about:config says the email agent is kmail
for both Firefox-2.0.0.12 and for FireFox-3beta4. I just found that
FireFox-2.0.0.12 works correctly and my message has been sent.
Both say the mailto agent is /usr/bin/kmail, but FF3b4 ignores that setting
and fires up the evolution configuration dialog. There is NO mention
of 'volution' in the about:config except of course 'resolution'
Methinks I've found a bug, about a 10 pound bug!
