Hi,

is it posible to use mailto with parameters to open templates(writing paper) for MS Outlook.

I'd like to use a specific html template that i will put on the server and which will be used as a mail template.

I know you can use mailto:xxx@xxx.com?subject=testing&body=yourbodytext.

Is there a parameter i can use to open this html template in an MS Outlook client

Thanks for any info.

Just a 2-cent suggestion...

you can create that template, and save it to a file.
Then have a link to that file for download... (or open..)

unless someone knows some third-party way to manipulate the mailto url or whatnot, it seems the only available parameters are:
CC, BCC, Body, Subject

(see the following links)


hope you find your answer! I'm interested in more advanced manipulation of the mailto url, too but haven't found anything to help me yet
