Gary, I'm sometimes not a good "enlightener", however here you have an
attempt to explain:
The original class represents an email message and has a method that
opens a mailto URL and send what is given by the toString() function.
The toString() simply returns the e-mail message in RFC822 format.
You have the following variables:
to_address : the address you want to send to
from_address: the from address
subject: the subject
body: the body of the message
I don't think it's so difficult. Probably weird, but not difficult.
Could you explain what you don't understand ?
I forgot to mention that it is a good idea that you do not assume the
system to be properly configured, and set (from some configuration
setting at initargs) the SMTP mail host:
System.getProperties().put("mail.host", your_mailhost_here);
HTH,
Carlos
