Paul, thanks for the reply. I don't seem to have the directions you
suggest for getting to "use a different email client," but
I think I am getting to where you suggest by the following: 

Configure Desktop (System Settings) > Default Applications > Choose the
default applications for various services > Email Client > Use a
different e-mail client. And there I have had the following 
displayed since I installed Claws-Mail quite some time ago:

claws-mail %u

I removed the %u and inserted --compose.

Unfortunately that didn't change anything.

I also tried removing the %u so that my selected email client simply
showed claws-mail. That also did not make any difference.

And I even tried inserting --compose after %u so that it read:

claws-mail %u --compose. 

Again, no difference.

Note: hovering over the original designation of claws-mail %u shows the
following:

%u: Full mailto: URL

Any other suggestions? 

Thank you. Your wise guidance is appreciated.
