This works if you are trying to use Outlook to do your emailing.

<p align=&quot;right&quot;>
<font size=&quot;2&quot;><img height=&quot;1&quot; alt src=&quot;images/spacer.gif&quot; width=&quot;1&quot; border=&quot;0&quot;><font color=&quot;#FFFF00&quot;>Questions
and \or Comments click image</font></font><a href=&quot;jr_clown@yahoo.com? Subject=Hey Clown nice site you have there.&quot; style=&quot;float: right&quot;><img border=&quot;0&quot; src=&quot;question.gif&quot; width=&quot;40&quot; height=&quot;40&quot;></a>

If you are trying to use the server. It a different animal my friend.
Hope this helps.

Ack..

Should be %20 not %32 :)
Code: 
<A HREF=&quot;mailto:my%20address@hotmail.com&quot;>my%20address@hotmail.com</A>

Will look like my address and should show up in the browser as &quot;my address@hotmail.com&quot;
