Mailto links as cc instead of new mail

Explanation:
I have an Email A which contains email-addresses (not in CC of mail A, but in the body of A)
I need to write an email B to all of those, or some of those mail addresses. But if I click them, a new mail is being opened for every single mail address.
For now, I need to copy&paste it from the new mail into the "cc mail", which is stupid. So I need a solution, that puts mail addresses in CC rather then a new mail.
Any Ideas?

re ;if I click them, a new mail is being opened for every single mail address.
Yes thats is correct because you invoked a 'mailto' link to open a new message to send to a specific email address which auto uses TO to send to the one selected email address.
If you added those emaill addresses to your address book then you could use the Contacts sidebar to select your contacts and then use the 'Addto Cc' button option. Those contacts would then be available to quickly use on another occasion.
right click on email address and select 'Add to address book'.
By default this will add them to the 'Personal Address book'.
If you use the addon MoreFunctionsForAddressBook, this will also allow you to choose which address book, otherwise you would need to manually move the contact via Address Book.

  • 'mailto' links no longer open a new message

    Hi,
    Since I upgraded to Lion I no longer get a new message with a pre-filled address when I click a mailto link on a webpage.  Is there a way to get this functionality back?  Also, when I click the Mail icon in the dock I no longer get taken to my inbox.  I have to either remember to open it via the icon on the right side of the dashed line on the dock, or, after clicking the Mail icon, go to the Window item in the menubar.  Weird.

  • Mailto links in firefox open full new evolution

    I don't know when this problem was introduced but when I click a mailto link in firefox it opens a new copy of evolution rather than opening a new mail message.
    It use to work fine but doesn't now. As I don't use the functionality much I don't know if this is a recent thing or has only just started happening.
    Versions are:
    firefox 1.5.0.7
    evolution 2.6.3
    Any ideas?

  • Mailto links don't open mail app.

    By accident I activated the mailto handler on google chrome, to be handled by Gmail. I deactivated it successfully but I can't reactivate the mailto links to be opened by the mail app.
    I googled it and tried almost everything without any success.

    Thanks Linc.
    I was doing something so stupid that I'm even ashamed of writing it here .

  • XHR and mailto links

    Hello there,
    I just ran into a bug with using XHR and mailto links. I have a simple app that fetches customer info from a web service, then reads some email templates and plugs the customer info into the email templates which are implemented as mailto links with subject and body parameters.
    The bug is that XHR stops working after I click any mailto link. The XHR will go out but its readyState never changes. If I restart the app, everything works again. If I add an event handler to the mailto links that stops the event, then the XHR doesn't break (but the email client doesn't get called either).
    The best solution I've come up with is to add a bogus target to my mailto links. That causes a new window to be displayed when the link is clicked so it's not ideal but it prevents my XHRs from going crazy.
    Is this a known bug? Is there a place to file bugs so they can be tracked? I filed it somewhere but there was a disclaimer saying they won't get back to me and it didn't tell me where bugs are tracked.
    I wanted to make a server call so the server could send the mail, but my client doesn't have a server that he can upload scripts to, it's an ecommerce website that he is not allowed to touch except from their web interface.
    I thought about issuing a command line call, but found that Adobe Air has no easy way to send a simple command.
    I also thought about finding a library that can send email; I found one in flash, which means I can use it from adobe air, but that would mean I'd have to write the UI for the email editor.
    Does anybody have any suggestions? Please drop a line with anything you may find useful

    Is anybody out there? No answers to this question yet. I just installed FF 6.0.2, and the bug is still there. What are the plans to fix it????

  • Mailto link in PDF uses wrong App on Windows 2008R2

    Hello,
    I have Adobe Reader X installed on Windows 2008R2 Terminal Server. Our Standard Mail App is Lotus Notes. This is configured as system wide mail app and IExplorer uses it if I click on a mailto-Link.
    If I click on a mailto-Link in Adobe Reader our old Mail App is started. But this app is surely not configured as app for mailto in the whole system.
    How can I change the behaviour of Adobe Reader and force it to use systems default Mail App?
    Regards, Torsten

    It has to be MAPI enabled. I googled "Lotus Notes mapi enabled" and this was the first result:

  • How can I configure mailto links to use my Google mail instead of Outlook ? I had it set in FF v3.6

    In Ver 3 I had my mailto links using my Google Mail instead of Outlook. How do I set the same way in Ver 4 ?
    I'm looking for the mailto app in Apps area and do not see it. That is how I did it in Ver 3.
    Thanks,
    Joe

    So I had the same problem and expected it to change with Ios5 but it's still the same. Settings in my iPhone4 v5.0 shows my Mac.com asthe account but Mac.com address is STILL grayed out when sending mail.  Can ONLY send from me.com (which i NEVER use) It's not that way on my iPad, just the VZ phone. Very annoying.

  • File, Send link doesn't open a new email. Using Firefox 11.0. Outlook 2010 is the Mailto default and W7 default email program. On the About:config page network.protocol-handler.external.mailto is set to regular font (not bold) "default Boolean true".

    File, Send link doesn’t open a new email. Running Firefox 11.0. Outlook 2010 is the Mailto default and the W7 default email program. On the About:config page, network.protocol-handler.external.mailto is set to regular font (not bold) “default Boolean true”.

    I assume you have tried toggling the setting in Firefox between Outlook and, say, Gmail:
    orange Firefox button ''or'' classic Tools menu > Options > Applications
    In the search box, type or paste '''mailto''' and pause for the list to filter.
    Change the setting and OK to save it, then return to the dialog, change back, and OK again.
    You also might want to toggle the setting at the OS level between Microsoft Outlook and the native Windows Mail client in a similar fashion. In Windows XP you could use IE's Options dialog, Programs tab, for this, but I'm not sure in Windows 7.
    Since one possibility is a problem in your Firefox settings (including the possibility of interfering add-ons), and another is a problem at the Windows level (e.g., Registry settings), it would be useful to try to identify which one it is. One quick way to distinguish is to create a new Firefox profile. It will start up with all factory settings. You can switch back to your existing profile after testing.
    First, I recommend backing up your Firefox settings in case something goes wrong. See [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Backing+up+your+information Backing up your information]. (You can copy your entire Firefox profile folder somewhere outside of the Mozilla folder.)
    After closing Firefox, start up again in the Profile Manager as described in this article: [http://support.mozilla.com/kb/Managing+profiles Managing profiles].
    With the new profile, can Firefox successfully create a message in Outlook?

  • Email-Links in WebUI shall open new Outlook mail

    Hello,
    we use CRM WebUI but by now we do not use the groupware integration.
    It is by now not an requirement to create emails directly in CRM.
    Is there a posibility to open only a new empty Outlook email if the user clicks on a mailadress in CRM WebUI? Like mailto-Links in the WWW -> the email adress shall be copied to the new outlook email.
    At the moment a new CRM mail opens if the user has the authorization or nothing happens if he do not have the authorization. This is not our desired behaviour.
    Thank you
    Best regards

    Hi Manfred,
    This is what I did.
    Implement GET_P_XXXX method
    Below is the sample code:
      CASE iv_property.
        WHEN if_bsp_wd_model_setter_getter~fp_fieldtype.
          IF IV_DISPLAY_MODE = abap_true.
            rv_value = cl_bsp_dlc_view_descriptor=>field_type_link.
          ELSE.
            rv_value = cl_bsp_dlc_view_descriptor=>field_type_input.
          ENDIF.
        WHEN if_bsp_wd_model_setter_getter=>fp_onclick.
        get the current entity
          me->collection_wrapper->find( iv_index = iv_index ).
          me->collection_wrapper->get_current( ).
        Get the  Email Address
          lv_string = me->GET_E_MAILSMT( attribute_path = 'EMAILADDR ).
          CONCATENATE 'mailto:' lv_string INTO lv_string. 
          rv_value = lv_string
      ENDCASE.

  • Firefox won't open mailto links in a new window like it used to...it just opens gmail in the current tab.

    I recently upgraded firefox and now whenever I click a mailto link it opens gmail in the current tab rather than in a new window. How can I get it to open email links in a new window.

    My MAILTO problem was finally fixed on the June 29, 2012 Firefox version 14 beta 10 release.

  • In FF 34.0.5 I use to be able to click on a link within an e-mail and the link would open in a new tab; it now opens in the same tab; how can i change it back?

    I'm using FF 34.0.5 (I like it). I use to be able to right click on a link, within an e-mail, and the link would open in a new tab. Now when I click on the link it opens in the same tab replacing my e-mail.
    Example - a friend sends me an e-mail containing a link to a web site he thinks I'd like. I click on the link and go to the web site and then go back to the e-mail tab and reply to him. Now, when clicking that link, my e-mail disappears and is replaced by the new site.
    How can I fix this? When this happened once before I was told to change the 'value' for a specific 'preference name' through the about:config page.
    Can anyone help jog my memory?
    Thanks!

    Is this about clicking a link in an external program?
    You can check this pref on the about:config page for external links.
    * browser.link.open_newwindow.override.external (-1)
    If this pref has the default value -1 then browser.link.open_newwindow is used.
    * http://kb.mozillazine.org/browser.link.open_newwindow
    *1: current tab; 2:new window; 3:new tab;
    You can open the <b>about:config</b> page via the location/address bar.
    You can accept the warning and click "I'll be careful" to continue.

  • How can I force mailto: links to open my webmail client in a new tab?

    I have configured Firefox 5 to use my Hotmail account as the default client when clicking 'mailto:' links. I would like to know if it is possible to have my webmail client open in a new tab by default when composing a message, so as not to navigate away from the page I was viewing.

    Open a new tab. In the address bar type; '''''About:Config''''' and press
    enter. If you get a page that warns you about continuing, press the
    '''''I will be careful''''' button. In the search bar, type; '''''Newtab'''''.
    Look for; '''''Browser.newtab.url'''''. Right click and select '''''Modify'''''.
    Type; '''''About:home''''' (or what ever page you want) and press
    enter. That should do it.

    You can open your second profile which is no ability of receiving new mail and export all of messages/contacts/calendar item to a PST file and save it somewhere.
    Then open the first profile, import the privious PST file into this profile to solve the problem.
    Using .pst files in Microsoft Outlook is good way to transfer the data, here is some information how to manage the PST file for your reference.
