It is not up to Org. Try

 (browse-url "mid:3218434.44csPzL39Z@linux.fritz.box") 

You will likely see nothing.

So, while Org may provide some limited help with mid:, as Max suggested,
there is no way to guarantee that mid: links will work for all users
without users hand-customizing how to open emails.

I am not even sure if we need to make Org open mid: links via
`browse-url'. Maybe it should be something else? IDK.
