It is possible to set the body of an email from the construct of a mailto,
but it's subject to the limits of a URL (because it is one,) which gives
you all of 2kb for address, subject and body.
Typically ASP sites use CDONTS/CDOSYS (depending on server O/S) to generate
rich email.
But in case you're able to work within these constraint, the syntax is:
mailto:recip@domain.com?subject=the%20subject&body=URL%20escaping%20rules%20apply

Thanks for your reply
I would like to use outlook as my email because i have all contact in my
address book so i can easily pich up email address from my outlook and send
it to consern persion..
Thats why i prefer Maito instead of CDONTS/CDOSYS ..
also can guide how to write alteast 2 k from my page body ?
mailto:recip@domain.com?subject=the%20subject&body=URL%20escaping%20rules%20apply

outlook email body

that how it works

And that will _sometimes_ work with _some_ email clients.
