Actually, if I open the context menu on the reply to sender
link and then click on the compose email to choice then it does
open a new email and does populate the to: field with the
sender's email address.
But still clicking on the reply to sender link does nothing.

Dan,
Are you, by chance, using webmail? Mailto: links
won't necessarily work smoothly with some webmail. If you bring
up the context menu and copy that link, it is a mailto: link.
It will have the word mailto: immediately followed by
the sender's e-mail address, followed by a question mark, followed
by what will be put in the message subject automatically. You can
snag the actual e-mail address that way if you're using webmail
that does not respond to a mailto: link.
I haven't encountered an actual e-mail client like
Thunderbird, WLM, Outlook, etc., in a very long time that doesn't
respond to a mailto: link by opening a compose window with the To:
address and Subject: prepopulated based on what the link has in
it.
