I've tried using <form enctype =&quot;post&quot; action=&quot;mailto: my_e-mail_adddress&quot; method=&quot;post&quot;> but it doesn't seem to work. Any ideas? Could it be because my e-mail is in lotus notes?
 
if method is POST, then enctype is more like multipart form data
but i don't know how to do what you want to - except by writing what you already wrote (but the correct enctype !) please check FAQ183-874 :)
 
enctype=&quot;text/plain&quot;

This should work... Thanks

yes, but note that text/plain will work if and only if you don't send files with your message
or else, you HAVE TO use multipart :( ------
please review FAQ183-874 - this will help you to get the best out of tt
