set system wide default mailto url
I'm trying to configure system wide settings in linux so any new user will apply for this settings.
I want register my zimbra server with mailto links.
I've found some information here: http://www.zimbra.com/forums/general-questions/48547-how-control-mailto-selection-firefox.html
but this must be performed by the user and I want to be preconfigured.
I also tried to play with mimeTypes.rdf, but it seems that there's no system wide mimetypes file. is just created when users changes something.
how can I setup that setting system wide?

I've found a partial solution.
create an application file, for example /usr/share/applications/zimbra.desktop with this content:
[Desktop Entry]
Icon=mail-message-new
MimeType=x-scheme-handler/mailto;
Name=Zimbra
Comment=Zimbra
Exec=xdg-open https://my.zimbraserver.com/zimbra/?view=compose&to=%u
Type=Application
X-XFCE-MimeType=x-scheme-handler/mailto;
then modify file /etc/gnome/defaults.list, find and substitute x-scheme-handler/mailto with filename you just created:
x-scheme-handler/mailto=zimbra.desktop
the caveat is only works with unity, if you use another wm probably won't work
