Outlook - C# / C Sharp

Newbie

I have a C# ASP.NET webform that has a linkbutton control wherein if the user
clicks it, it should open up Microsoft Outlook as a separate window with the
To: edit box filled in with an email address. The user should be able to send
an email. How do I go about doing this?

Or use COM interop to be sure you are using MS Outlook (when it is not the
default mail handler) :-)

Tamir,

Can u pls. elaborate. I was looking at the linkbutton properties and didnt
find a structure or link field property. I also added mailto:th*@email.com in
the message handler lbtnMyButton_Click(object sender, System.EventArgs e) but
its not building.
