    email address into Outlook "new message" box?

    Hi,
    I have managed to get the contact email address given on our website to automatically open a "new message" box in Outlook when the email adress is clicked (via a hyperlink set to "mail to"). I also added the email address in the URL box during this process. But.....the Outlook message box opens without the email address in the "To" box. Am I asking the impossible?

    You have not given your link your email adress. Select the object ot text that links to your email, right click it and go to Object properties, chose Link, and after the "mailto:" add your email address

          Thank you both,
          I had written the email address in but had deleted "mail to" before it!
