Sure - use the computer's native email client, as in:

on GoMail tMailTo
  switch (the platform)
  case "MacOS"
    send "mailto:"&tMailTo to program "Finder" with "GURLGURL"
    break
  case "Win32"
    -- Read the WIndows registry to get the default calling command for HTML
files
    put queryRegistry("HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\mailto\shell\open\command\") into
tMailApp
    if tMailApp = "" then exit GoMail
    if (quote & "%1" & quote) is in tMailApp then replace quote & "%1" &
quote with tMailTo in tMailApp
    if "%1" is in tMailApp then replace "%1" with tMailTo in tMailApp
    set cursor to watch
    open process tMailApp for neither
    break
  end switch
end GoMail

Sorry, I only know Mac and Windows; if you want how to do this in UNIX,
you'll have to ask around on the board.

Hope this helps,
