MAILTOURL


Syntax

Envariable

M2H_MAILTOURL=URL-template

Element

<MAILTOURL>
URL-template
</MAILTOURL>

Command-line Option

-mailtourl URL-template


Description

The MAILTOURL defines the URL template for hyperlinking mail addresses in message headers when the MAILTO resource is active.

NOTE:

The MAILTOURL resource has different rules for variable expansion. If a variable does not exactly match the set of variables available for the MAILTOURL, the variable text will be taken literally as part of the element content. Therefore, a single "$" can be used to represent a "$" character.

Also, variables in the MAILTOURL should NOT have ":NU" modifier. This will prevent the variables from be recognized. MHonArc will automatically treat the replacement value as a part of a URL string.


Default Setting

mailto:$TO$
