2bdcee13 adds support for sending attachments in a particular case - when a
MAPI provider has been selected that only offers an Extended MAPI interface,
not Simple MAPI. MS Outlook is one such application. It'll make no difference
to the default Wine MAPI provider.

The code that was in b4b7724a is now in winemapi, but that just attempts to
start whatever program handles the "mailto" protocol, which doesn't have
(guaranteed) support for attachments. We can't assume that xdg-email will be
available though (e.g., on OS X it definitely won't be). In theory we could try
to see if xdg-email is present and use it if found, falling back to mailto:
afterwards.
