How to pop-up Outlook Email window with To: blank?

Hi All,
I currently have a page which shows multiple rows with checkboxes. I have an After Submit process which loops through the rows and stores some values of the checked rows into a variable to be used as the body of an email. I then call apex_mail.send() to send the email.
Instead of prepopulating a TO: address within the process and have it send automatically, I would like to have Outlook pop-up the email window with the body prepopulated as mentioned above but with the TO: address box null so that the user can select the address from Outlook's Address Book.
Any help/advice would be greatly appreciated!
Thanks,
Jason

1: Yup.. It would look something like this:
<a href="mailto:?body=aslkdjldfks">Open Email</a>  the # should read:
"mailto:?body=aslkdjldfks"
2: If you go this route, there are a few things you need to remember:
The mailto tag is client side. So you would have to generate the javascript on the server and print it out on the client.
If your users do not have Outlook, or another mail client, this will do nothing.
If you have a really long message body it will not work.
If you have weird characters you will need to encode these.
So, if you still think that the mailto is what you need then here is some javascript that will auto open it for you:

    Hi Lakshmi:
       Is easy to do it, follow the next steps:
    Insert in your Layout Design a LinkToURL GUI Control, in the properties of this control there are special propertie called "reference" put there the email for open with the outlook window, for example : mailto:[email protected]
    also there are a property "text", put it whatever you want for example :    send me a email

    Those are not viruses. You have probably installed some malware:
    The Safe Mac » Adware Removal Guide
    Helpful Links Regarding Malware Protection
    An excellent link to read is Tom Reed's Mac Malware Guide.
    Also, visit The XLab FAQs and read Detecting and avoiding malware and spyware.
    See these Apple articles:
              Mac OS X Snow Leopard and malware detection
              OS X Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              OS X Mountain Lion- Protect your Mac from malware
              About file quarantine in OS X
    If you require anti-virus protection Thomas Reed recommends using Dr.Web Light from the App Store. It's free, and since it's from the App Store, it won't destabilize the system. If you prefer one of the better known commercial products, then Thomas recommends using Sophos.(Thank you to Thomas Reed for these recommendations.) If you already use Sophos, then be aware of this if you are using Mavericks: OS X Mavericks- Sophos Anti-Virus on-access scanner versions 8.0 - 9.1 may cause unexpected restarts
    From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
    The facts are:
    1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
    2. There is no anti-malware that can detect anything targeting the Mac because there
         is no Mac malware in the wild, and therefore, no "signatures" to detect.
    3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
         the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
         techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
    4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
        your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
        protection against malware.
    5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
        from which they purport to protect you.
    6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
    7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
    8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
        you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
    9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

  • How do i import outlook email addresses to iphone and send as a SMS text messages

    How do i import outlook email addresses to iphone and send as a SMS text messages?

    You can send a message through an email gateway so that it appears as a text on someone's phone. However, it's not their regular address. For example, for a Verizon customer, it would be [email protected] Perhaps that's what you're thinking of?

  • How do I get Outlook Email from Exchange Server configured on iPhone?

    My business email is hosted on MS Exchange Server via Outlook and is distributed to my networked PC and VPN home PC and laptop. My IT manager has enabled IMAP on the Exchange Server. I am unable to get my email account on the iPhone to receive or send mail through my Server. My domain names have been entered in the format "exchange.[domainname].com, and my user ID and password has been input for both incoming and outgoing email. The iPhone cannot seem to talk to the server and retrieve or send mail. Does anyone know what to do on the iPhone to be able to communicate with the server? (I am aware of the various limitations of the iPhone vs. Windows Smart Phones in terms of being able to use Microsoft Push Email and to be able to synch calendars, contacts etc. with a corporate server and/or multiple computers. Hopefully Apple will license ActiveSync for the iPhone to provide for this functionality, as recently rumored on a few blogs.)

    Thanks for your response. I've used the path that I had successfully used for years with my Windows Smartphone to no success. Neither advanced Apple telephone support nor my IT guy could get this to work. I have implemented a workaround to have my server automatically forward my emails to a new Yahoo account which then pushes to my iPhone. Definitely an unsatisfactory and incomplete solution, however.
    Editorial comments for Apple: Windows ActiveSync was so much more sophisticated in terms of being able to deal with server-based email, contacts, calendar and for users with multiple computers - i.e. office, home and laptop. I would have expected Apple to introduce something at least as functional and sophisticated or to licence ActiveSync. My user capabilities are substantially downgraded in these areas with my new iPhone and absent a quick software upgrade or licence of ActiveSync I will be unable to function productively with my iPhone. While we're at it, Apple, with my multiple email accounts set up on the iPhone, which is a great feature, I have no easy way to tell in which account to find a new email. I am forced to update the inbox in every single account to try to find where my new mail is going - some new mail indicator next to the account name (as opposed to showing how many unread emails exist with each account) needs to be implemented. The phone hardware, other than the batter - which doesn't even last me for the full course of a workday - is great, but software has only gotten to about 75% of where it needs to be.

  • How do i migrate outlook email .pst files

    Just switched from pc to mac. I need to migrate my .pst outlook email files to mail in mac.
    how do I do that?

    The simplest way is to open a MobileMe or Google Apps account and sync the info across the divide.
    Almost as simple is LittleMachines O2M which will convert the pst into files that iCal/Address Book and Mail can read.
    If you are looking for a free solution, have plenty of time and a tolerance for frustration you can try exporting Outlooks contacts to a txt file, then use one of the free converters to get it into Mbox format and import that into mail, for calendars there are some utilities that claim to be able to do the same for iCal but I have never seen one of them actually work without creating more work tidying up. Emailchemy will move the mail to MacMail very well (but it's not free, cheap)
    Unless you know what you are doing and have time and patience to spare choose option 1 (sync) or 2 (O2M), I have tried the free way and am glad that I do not own a firearm.
    PS: if your email is Imap or Exchange but not POP it will not need to be exported/imported, connecting to the account will bring it back 'as-was'

  • Old Outlook emails (windows) on to Thunderbird (Mac); Files already on Mac

    Hi, I have looked at several forums, including this one, and cannot find an answer to my question. If you can help I would hugely appreciate it.
    1) I used to use Microsoft Outlook on a Windows PC.
    2) I now have a Macbook Pro with OS Leopard
    3) I use Thunderbird as my current email programme on my Mac
    4) When I had my windows PC I saved my old emails into a two files (one for sent items, one for inbox items). I currently have these two files (about 3 GB in size each) saved in a folder on my Mac. When I look at the 'info' section, it says they are 'Unix Executable Files'.
    I wish to transfer my old Outlook emails into Thunderbird, open them and save them in my appropriate folders. I currently use a Gmail account that is IMAP-linked, but I don't think this is in any way relevant to my problem.
    Can someone help me open these old emails in Thunderbird?

    I don't know if this helps but check out Outlook2MaC.

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    Providing you are simply updating your existing details and not changing to another account, when you delete your account, all the data that is synced with iCloud will also be deleted from the device (but not from iCloud), but will be synced back to your device when you login again.
    In order to change your Apple ID or password for your iCloud account on your computer, you need to sign out of the account from your computer first, then sign back in using your updated details. (System Preferences > iCloud, click the sign out button)

    If you don't know your password, don't know your security questions and don't have a rescue address or don't receive a reset email, you should contact AppleCare who will initially try to assist you with a reset email or if unsuccessful will pass you to the security team to reset your security questions for you.

  • How do I populate a popup window with data from the parent window

    I am brand new to JSF so please help me. I have a JSF page where users enter some search criteria and it displays the results in a matrix table. I need to have a PRINT button or link on this page that pops up a new window that displays the same data but in a printer-friendly format.
    The parent page is already created and works fine. Now, what is the best way to populate the same data in the popup? The data is stored in a hashmap and retrived by a managed bean with session scope. Below is the XHTML code for displaying the table in the parent page.
    <tbody>
                             <c:forEach items="#{inventoryManagedBean.inventoryColors}" var="row">
                                  <tr id="matrixColor">
                                       <c:forEach items="#{inventoryManagedBean.sizeList}" var="column" varStatus="cellStatus">
                                            <c:if test="#{cellStatus.index == 0}">
                                                 <th width="70px"><h:graphicImage value="../graphics/styles/#{row.color}.jpg"
                                                      alt="#{row.color}" width="70" height="40"></h:graphicImage></th>
                                                 <th width="100px"><h:outputText value="#{row.colorDescription}" />
                                                 <h:outputText value="#{row.color}" /></th>
                                            </c:if>
                                            <td width="70px"><c:if
                                                 test="#{inventoryManagedBean.inventoryMap[row.color][column.size] != null}">
                                                 <c:if test="#{inventoryManagedBean.inventoryMap[row.color][column.size].label != '-1'}">
                                                      <span class="matrixText"><h:outputText
                                                           value="#{inventoryManagedBean.inventoryMap[row.color][column.size].label}"
                                                           title="#{inventoryManagedBean.inventoryMap[row.color][column.size].title}" /> </span>
                                                      <t:htmlTag value="br" rendered="#{userManageBean.user.loggedIn}" />
                                                      <a4j:region renderRegionOnly="false">
                                                           <h:inputText
                                                                value="#{inventoryManagedBean.inventoryMap[row.color][column.size].quantityOrdered}"
                                                                rendered="#{userManageBean.user.loggedIn}" maxlength="6" size="6">
                                                           </h:inputText>
                                                      </a4j:region>
                                                 </c:if>
                                                 <h:outputText value="Call"
                                                      rendered="#{inventoryManagedBean.inventoryMap[row.color][column.size].label == '-1'}" />
                                            </c:if> <h:outputText value="N/A"
                                                 rendered="#{inventoryManagedBean.inventoryMap[row.color][column.size] == null}" /></td>
                                       </c:forEach>
                                  </tr>
                             </c:forEach>

    call javascript window.open("pagename"); & add some printer button there,
    and put rendered attribute to button & in backing bean generate boolean getter setter for variable use same variable in jsp printer button in rendered attribute, in bean constructor pass some parameter throuh jsp page,
    if parameter is match then it rendered attribute to true for button else not,
    it means that in parent window you can not see printer button, but in same window in popup you will see printer button,
    good luck
    <h:commandButton rendered="#{bean.renderedButton}"/>
    bean
    private boolean renderedButton= false;(generate getter setter)
    also pass parameter from UI to bean constructor
