email form change?

[yandso]

I know this code use to work

<form name=form action=&quot;mailto:email@here.com&quot; method=&quot;post&quot; enctype=&quot;text/plain&quot;>

now I am seeing that with newer browsers it does not work properly anymore. Now it just acts like a link and opens an email window. Does anyone know if they are/have phased out this functionallity in the new browsers and if there is another way to send just a plain email for with out having to use server side elements.
