How do I create a mailto link?


Contact information is crucial on a Web page.

When you write a Web page, it is common to indicate some way for your readers to contact you.

Mailto links make it easy to link to your email address to allow people to email you.

To insert a link that creates an automatic email:

  1. Select the text where you want to put the link (most of the time this will be an email address or a name).

  2. Click the  icon.

  3. Choose Email and type at least the email address. You can also predefine an email subject and a standard message, but this is not mandatory.

  4. Click OK to create the mailto link.
