Send an email using mailto
Send an email with the mailto formula: it automatically opens the device's default email, the user is redirected outside the app and a new message is created with prefilled content.
To send an email using mailto, create a new action and choose Open URL. You can use data binding to bind content of this email.
Here is how to configure this command:
To specify a recipient:
mailto:chose@bidule.fr
If you want to add more than one recipient, enter the email addresses one after the other, simply separated by commas (no spaces).
To define the subject of the email:
mailto:chose@bidule.fr?subject=Coucou
To enter the body of the message:
mailto:chose@bidule.fr?subject=Coucou&body=La premiere ligne du message
When the action is triggered, the default mailbox opens. Here is an example of the result from an iPad:
