There are several parameters that can be used when using the OPEN WEB URL command option mailto. These are as follows:
Parameter | Syntax |
Address message to multiple recipients | , (comma separating e-mail addresses) |
Add entry in the "Subject" field | ?subject=Subject Field Text |
Add entry in the "CC" field | &cc=Someone@domain.com |
Add entry in the "Blind Copy To" or "BCC" field | &bcc=Someoneelse@anotherdomain.com |
Add entry in the "Body" field | &body=Your message here |
For example:
OPEN WEB URL("mailto:user@abc.com,user@def.com?subject=Test Subject&cc=user@ghi.com&bcc=user@jkl.com&body=Test Body")
This statement would open an email window to user@abc.com and user@def.com with a copy sent to user@ghi.com and a blind copy to user@jkl.com with a subject of Test Subject and a body containing Test Body. Notice the ? is used in the first add on feature after the initial feature and the & is used to add on additional features.
