What is a mailto link?
Mailto link is a hyperlink that allows user to send an email to a specific address directly from an HTML document, without having to copy and enter it into an email client like Gmail or Outlook.
First we will look at the “link part” of the mailto link and then put it inside HTML tags.
Start with mailto:
Every mailto link starts with:
Accurately Measure Your Marketing Campaigns. Google Analytics has provided a useful mechanism for the accurate tracking of marketing campaigns. The only problem is it isn't the easiest to use and is VERY easy to make mistakes. Yes we used linkmaker. We were with a VA so they don't have their own children to place and we went straight to linkmaker. I found it incredibly overwhelming but we were very open minded in terms of our age range, gender and the needs we thought we could meet so we were matched very quickly with our son.
Single recipient
Then comes the email address without any additional characters, just the email address as is.
Multiple recipients
It is not advisable to have multiple recipients in the “To”, “Cc” or “Bcc” fields of the mailto link. You can do it, but it may not work.
If you have already decided to create a mailto link with multiple recipients and cannot be discouraged, this is how to go about it:
- Add multiple email addresses.
- Separate them with commas (,).
- Remove spaces between commas and email addresses.
- Test the link with multiple email clients.
If commas do not work...
- Separate email addresses with semicolons (;).
- Remove spaces between semi-colons and email addresses.
- Test the link with multiple email clients.
Mailto link with multiple recipients and commas should look like this:
Or with semicolons:
The only way that will surely work is with up to 3 email addresses where you include one in the “To” field, one in the “Cc” field and one in “Bcc” field.
No recipient
It is similarly not advisable to leave the “To” field of the mailto link empty. You can do it, but it may not work.
If you have already decided to create a mailto link without recipients, these are potential ways of doing it. Examples below contain “Hello” in the “Body” field of the mailto link.
Vanilla version:
Space version:
Space as Unicode version:
Separate “To” parameter:
Remember to test these links with multiple email clients before publishing them.
Characters that divide parameters
In the last example you may have noticed two characters dividing the mailto link parameters: question mark (?) and ampersand (&).
Question mark appears only before the first parameter, while ampersand appears before all others. Here are a few examples with underscores (___) representing the content.
Mailto link with subject
Here is an example of a mailto link with the subject line: “How are you doing?”
Spaces and other special characters
As you can see the example includes some unusual characters. This is because the Mailto link generator encoded all special characters in order to format the link properly.
Here is a short list of characters we are used to translated to UTF-8 encoded characters:
This is the biggest reason why tools like Mailto link generator come in handy. No one namely wants to memorize that %20
stands for space.

HTML tags
Once you have generated the “link part” of the mailto link, all that remains is inserting it into the link HTML tags that look like this:
The opening tag <a> comes at the beginning, while the closing tag </a> comes at the end. Between them comes link text, which is the only part that will be displayed at the end.
All that remains is pointing the link to its destination, which is done through the href
attribute:
It is in this attribute or rather between the quotation marks that you insert the generated mailto link:
Once this is inserted into an HTML document or whatever medium displays hyperlinks, it produces the following mailto link:
