Hey Bill, You might want to try that link Doug posted earlier suggesting using navigateToURL(). Search that page for: mailto
The link for the page is: http://livedocs.macromedia.com/flex/2/docs/00001013.html I use use virtually identical syntax in my Flex 2 app and it has proven solid for me. Here is the code straight out of my app: private function clickSendEmail():void { var u:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mailto:?subject=Hello World!" ); navigateToURL(u,"_self"); } Also, last week Bruce Phillips' put up a detailed posted on his blog highlighting using navigateToURL(). In particular see the logic in Bruce's goToEmail() function.
