When I first installed Jaunty, I tried to change the default mail client in FF by adding the "network.protocol-handler.app.mailto" and setting its value to "/usr/bin/thunderbird" in about:config.

That didn't work, but changing the default mail client in System|Preferences|`Preferred Applications` worked.
