- Peter:
-
- I've already implemented something akin to your mailto: URL in Cello,
- though not as detailed. My method may be slightly more in line with
- URL syntax (or it may not, who knows) and looks like:
-
- mailto://some.mail.host.dom/somebody
-
- The behavior is for a mail form to pop up with the user's
- (preconfigured in the MS-Windows equivalent of a .rc file) e-mail
- address as sender, and with somebody@some.mail.host.dom as the
- recipient. I thought it unnecessarily complicated to try to specify
- the content of the message beyond this....
-
- Incidentally, this works quite nicely with any kind of doc (such as
- text returned from a CSO/qi server) which contains 'actionable' email
- addresses, and provides a nice way to do staff directories and such.
-
- Regards,
- Tb.
