The Internet Commands plugin can be used to send e-mail, however the required setup can be complex. For a simplier implimentation the Open Web URL command can be used to send an e-mail with a mailto URL.

When the above code is executed the default mail client installed on the machine will open with a new mail message pre-addressed to test@4d.com
