I would think you also wanted to remove the two slashes after the 
colon. (-;

Feeding your favourite search engine with terms like "DOS String
Split" (maybe replace "split" with "edit" or "manipluation") should
give you something you can work with. Something like cut the first "X"
characters, or replace the substring "protocol_name://" with an empty
string.

Alternatively, you could perhaps edit the To field via macros and
RegEx in the message template within TB!.

Glad you worked it out.

For my version of TB! the Help file does mention the need to use
quotes if a parameter contains spaces:-

Note: If a parameter value contains space characters, enclose
it in quotation marks. If a value contains quotation marks, you
should use single quotes (" ' " characters).




One more question:

OS send to application 'protocol_name:value' in %1, thus this whole string appears in 'Recipient' 
field of mail editor. Is it possible programatically (on the fly) parse such string to only part 
after semicolon is putted into RCPT field?

   You can set up multiple email accounts in The
Bat!, with one being primary/default.  When compose
window is open, you can look at the  bottom border of
the window and see the name of your default mail
account.  Clicking that shows all configured mail
accounts to choose  from, but choose it before you
type anything.



I cannot write any Regular Expressions, but they keep
impression me. I would think that a RegEx can parse the
URI for something you code into it, and then issue a
command "choose account". That would do the same thing
but automated.



Maybe it could be even simpler with AddressBook Group templates. For
one type of customer, all the customer email addresses go in a
specific AB Group. You set up the AB group templates to take care of
the sender address, signature, etc. Then, when you follow your Mailto:
link for a customer whose email address is in that AB Group, the
right template should be used. (If their address is in multiple AB
Groups, this won't work.)

Alternatively, take a look at "Command Line Parameters" in TB!'s help
file and see if /mail or /mailto might help you.



Have defined custom protocol 'testprot' in windows 7 by following registry 
entry:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\The Bat!\thebat.exe" 
"/MAILU=testprot;TO=%1;S=Test;TEXT=c:\work\template.txt"

in 'HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\testprot\shell\open\command' registry path.
In my web application have following link:

clik on link perform (if not started yet) start TheBat!, create mail by 
template and put it in the
Outbox folder, but such string 'testprot://mail...@host.com' is putted in 'To:'
box, insted of recipients address only. Changing registry string to '/MAILTOU' 
cause same behaviour
but mail goes into output folder of default profile, not the specified profile.

How could I achieve the created message is opened in 'edit message' window on

Solved. EDIT command sould be added into string and if account name contain space, it must 
doublequoted in command string. this could be added to documentation.

Sounds interesting. Look like windows can start app with specified CLI parameters by custom URI

Start specific profile depend on URI

Have internal web system with different type of customers. Want to mail to customer using Thebat!

Is such solution possible?
