make evo & epiphany play nice, but not system wide prefs, and no gnome

[Tony Baldwin <photodharma@gmail.com>]

Hi,

I would like Evolution and Epiphany to play nice together, like a suite 
(like iceweasel and icedove can), or something, wherein Evolution sends 
links to open in a new tab in Epiphany, and Epiphany uses Evo for 
mailto: links, etc.
The thing is, I'm not using gnome, and don't want to set Epiphany and 
Evo as my default browser and mail app system-wide, anyway.
I want to keep Icedove and Iceweasel as defaults.
Currently, Evo sends links to a new tab in iceweasel, and epiphany 
hasn't a clue what to do with mailto: links.

I can't seem to find anywhere in the configs or preferences for either 
epiphany or evo that I can set them as their default apps for each 
other, and the only information I find googling re: this matter involves 
 using gnome and setting said preferences system-wide with 
gnome-control-center, which is not an option, because:
a) I don't want those as system wide preferences, just within epiphany 
and evo, and
b) I'm not using gnome (nor kde, xfce, fluxbox, openbox, lxde, icewm, 
etc., etc., etc.  I'm using ion3), and, thus, don't have 
gnome-control-center installed.

any ideas? Is this possible?  If it isn't, it should be.

thanks,
tony
