A "mailto" link is a type of hyperlink that allows users to open their default email client and compose a new email message to a specific email address. When a user clicks on a "mailto" link, it automatically opens a new email composition window with the recipient's email address pre-filled.


A standard mailto: link looks like this:

mailto:test@force24.co.uk

When the "mailto" link is clicked, it triggers the user's default email program to open, pre-filling the "To" field with the email address "test@force24.co.uk".


This can be added as an inserted link in text and CTA buttons.




To include additional content, such as subject lines, CC/BCC recipients, and body text, you can utilise a specific tool called the Force24 Mailto Generator.



You can fill out the additional information you wish to populate via the mailto and the tool will generate the link for you:




Once generated, you can simply copy and paste this into the hyperlink section in your template, or directly via the HTML code provided.
