Mail Application Integration

Description

Currently, Adium gives users the option to notify users of new mail received on MSN and Gmail accounts. But it only takes us to the respective webmail sites. Why not give us the choice to choose between webmail and any given mail application on the user's computer, such as Mail.app or Entourage. This would then open the application so we could check mail that way.

Similarly, why not add the ability to directly email a given contact. Opening the given mail application and sending the email to them. I for one would use this all the time, and know others who would too.

(In [21292]) Patch from sphynx to add a "Launch Mail" option to the New Mail dialogue, very useful if you use a client other than your browser for mail. Good first patch! Thanks :)

I changed the "Open Mail" button to read "Open Mail in Browser" to make the distinction more clear between loading the mail in the browser and loading the default Mail program (e.g. Mail.app).
