Ahhh THANK YOU!!!!!!!!
Note it has limitations: http://isolani.co.uk/articles/mailto.html.
That said, I use it regularly.
A wrinkle you may need: mailto:someone@example.com?subject=Email%20Suggestions&body=name:%0Aemail:
The first bold escape characters (%20) are used to allow spaces safely. The second forces a new line.

mailto: to set the recipient, or recipients, separate with comma &cc= to set the CC recipient(s) &bcc= to set the BCC recipient(s) &subject= to set the email subject, URL encode for longer sentences, so replace spaces with %20, etc. &body= to set the body of the message, you can add entire sentences here, including line breaks. Line breaks should be converted to %0A.

I have always used a ?. myname@myname.com?subject=Text to appear in the Subject line.
I guess this is one area where HTML is more forgiving or more flexible.

Hi,
This is almost all covered in the XDPX10 manual, page 397, except for the subject. Thanks for that!
I have a minor problem with the preview. When I click on the email link in Preview, it opens my Outlook and opens/creates two replies instead of one. When I run the preview with IE, it only opens 1 reply, as it should. Anyone else notice this? Preview Bug?
Sounds like a "feature".
I think there are several problems with the built in browser. If the e-mail is working correctly when you use the other browser options (available if you have the browser or browsers installed), then you are good.

Hi browj2,
I think this is a similar bug to Firefox opening two identical windows when opeing a new window tab. Xara are about to release an upgrade which hoepfully fixes this issue.

Hi all,
I'm trying to get some text - "contact me", which is part of a short paragraph - to link to email - I used Egg's example on page 1 of this topic.
In the preview and in Chrome, when clicked, it just opens a new browser page - any help appreciated
