- it is supported by all browsers, as it does not rely on the widely varying implementation of the mailto action
- it creates – depending on the servlet of course – a nicer email message (not just one long line with all data); an enhanced version of the servlet can even create an XML document in the Email body
- I did not know about the mailto action until you wrote your comment. So thanks for the enlightenment.

best regards,

Lucas
