Hello Elimar,

in the mutt package is the shellscript /usr/lib/mutt/mailto-mutt, which 
is the solution for your problem. These are the first lines from the 
script.

# mailto-mutt -- wrapper to be able to use mutt as mailto handler from 
# firefox
#
# To use, surf to Firefox's about:config page and configure the 
# following
# three values:
#   network.protocol-handler.external.mailto boolean true
#   network.protocol-handler.app.mailto string '/path/to/handler'
#   network.protocol-handler.warn-external.mailto boolean false
