Nothing changes. When there is no default email handler configured
i.e. when Firefox is set to ask each time. It shows two options for
Emacs - (1) Emacs(Mail, Client) (2) Emacs (Mail). When I select the
first one, it shows error that I reported. If I select option (2), Emacs
launches without any warning (desired behaviour).
