Is there a way to start Evolution with To: and Subject: via the command

I'd like to be able to plug Evolution as my mailer into my new browser
(Galeon) but haven't seen the appropriate command line switches to do
this.  To: and Subject: are almost required.  Others would be nice. 
Thanks!

Evolution supports "mailto" URLS, so something like this should work:
"evolution mailto:havardw stud ntnu no?subject=Test"

To set Evo as the default handler for mailto in Gnome, go to "Document
Handlers->URL handlers" under Settings and add the mailto type with
"evolution %s" as a handler.
