But I thought Paul Hoffman said: > [ ... ] > The "mailserver" URL has the form: > > mailserver:<rfc822-addr-spec>/<subject>/<body>/[<other-headers>] > > Client software would prepare a mail message with the <subject> text as the > subject and the <body> text as the body of the message. It looks good to me. A useful addition would be an token which gets replaced with the user's email address by the browser before the mail gets sent. Why would this be useful? I can think of three reasons: * Some people like to have mailing-list traffic delivered to a different email address to their usual one. * Some mailing-list software likes the senders address to be included in the subject or body of the message. * Some browsers run on machines other than where mail should be delivered to (uncommon, I know). I'm not sure what the best way be to encode such a token would be. Anyone got any ideas?
