How to Send E-mail With the Default E-mail Client
You may want to allow users to send you back feedback. You can either send it directly to your site via sockets or send the user to your website. What if you don’t have a website? No feedback? Yeah, right. Just have them send it to you by e-mail.
You can not send spaces in URLs, you have to convert them first. Example: if the subject were to be ‘Bug Report!’ then you should put %20 instead of the space character – ‘Bug%20Report!’. %20 is the ASCII value for space.
In this example MemoBugText is the memo in which the user describes the bug, ‘bugreports@youremail.com’ is your e-mail address and ‘Bug Report’ is the subject of that e-mail.
