How to Launch the Default e-Mail Agent - VB2005

How do I launch the default e-mail agent using Asp.Net 2.0 and VB 2005?

I have a button on the page called 'Send e-Mail'.

I want to launch the user's default e-mail agent.

The message will contain a send to address, subject and text. No attachments
will be sent.

Thanks,
Larry Rebich

All you need is mailto

However, remember that if your page is going to be on the public Internet,
you should find some way of obfuscating the actual email address, or it'll
get spammed from now till doomsday...

I'm bouncing off of "out-of-memory" errors using current release of eclipse. OK, so I've ferreted around and found that I have to pass special arguments to the JVM to get it to use more that a 64Mb heap. I poked around to discover that this pokes a line into a .launch file, which for my case, is shown below. <stringAttribute key="org.eclipse.jdt.launching.VM_ARGUMENTS" value="-Xms512m -Xmx1536m"/>

It states quite emphatically in the MSDN that Launch Conditions WILL be executed in the order added. This statement holds true if every Condition has a InstallURL value set. but not if there is no InstallURL value. For Example : I want to check that W2K exists on the target machine before installing SP4. So, I add a...
