You're thinking of RFC2368, which defines mailto: URLs. RFC2369
discusses the use of URLs by mailing list software to add mailto:
links to list services (help, subscribe, unsubscribe etc), but is not
related to RFC1738 except insofar as it refers to it. Now stop spewing
s**t on the list and go read RFC1738.

BTW, it's spelled 'superseded'.
