So lately I’ve been getting reports of a recent update making it so outlook no longer handles MAILTO: links causing all sorts of confusion in other office programs so I cooked up a little registry file that seems to fix it. This registry file is for office 2003 but changing OFFICE11 to OFFICE12 should make it work for office 2007 as well.
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto]
@="URL:MailTo Protocol”
“EditFlags"=hex:02,00,00,00
“URL Protocol"="”
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto\DefaultIcon]
@="\"C:\\PROGRA~1\\MICROS~2\\OFFICE11\\OUTLOOK.EXE\",7"
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto\shell]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto\shell\open]
[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto\shell\open\command]
@="\"C:\\PROGRA~1\\MICROS~2\\OFFICE11\\OUTLOOK.EXE\" -c IPM.Note /m \"%1\"”

Creating an Administrative Installation Point for Office 2003 would not require you to tweak the registry settings per computer, it should have been taken cared off during the installation of Office 2003 running from a Network.
