I don't have an answer, but have a question. . .
Your post sparked my curiosity. I "tangled" with the
invoke client/mail to issue, which works like a charm
on a Mac but is full of caveats on Windows.
Then I finally opted out entirely and switched to
using POST to send my own form to a forms-to-mail
cgi. . .why are you finding in necessary to stay with
invoking the email client? Because you don't have
access to a forms-to-mail CGI?
I am interested because I still wonder if certain
contexts that I "can't see" exist where invoking
the users client would be the best option.
