You might be able to do this automating internet explorer like so:

oIE = CreateObject("InternetExplorer.Application")
oIE.Navigate2("mailto:")

I believe there is also another way of invoking the default mail client, I don't recall at this time.

Also you can roll your own form with the required fields and use this MAPI class from the UT downloads: http://www.levelextreme.com/wconnect/wc.dll?FournierTransformation~2,54,Forum=5,28,1034
This way you don't need to know what the default client is.
