MAILTOURL does not work that way. It defines how addresses in message headers are linked. However, you can do what you want by placing the markup: <a href="mailto:$FROMADDR:U$?in-reply-to=$MSGID:U$&subject=$SUBJECTNA:U$"> Within the MSGFOOT resource. > As a second step, I would like to to use a cgi script to POST > addressfragments available by the MailToURL resource. > <MailToURL> > URL-template > <MSGFOOT> > I build the form to call the cgi in <MSGFOOT>, but then the functionality of > <MailToURL> is not active. > > Can I use <MailToURL> anywhere in the HTML page? No. The documentation for the resource states it only deals with addresses in message headers. > How canI define my own "URL-template"? You have use of all the resource variables available to create whatever "URL-template" you desire. You can define a custom resource variable via the DEFINEVAR resource if you want to reference your template in multiple locations. For example: <DefineVar> MY-REPLY-TO_FORM <form action="/cgi-bin/reply.cgi"> <input type="hidden" name="local-part" value="$FROMADDRNAME$"> <input type="hidden" name="domain-part" value="$FROMADDRDOMAIN$"> <input type="hidden" name="human-name" value="$FROMADDRNAME$"> <input type="hidden" name="ref-msgid" value="$MSGID$"> <input type="hidden" name="subject" value="$SUBJECTNA$"> <input type="submit" name="Reply> </form> </DefineVar> Then, whenever you want to place the form somewhere on a page, just use $MY-REPLY-TO_FORM$. --ewh
