I was talking about those without a mailto: there. For mailto: it doesn't send at all but just open an email window, and that determines how it is sent in the end - usually ends up with SMTP or IMAP, whatever the respective email client and account has set.
OK, my point is that I was seeking to clarify Dustbin's original thinking, in which he writes :
E.g. the mailto: protocol. I take it this is not SMTP. But is it HTTP; is it FTP; is it...?
Now my thinking is that his analysis is wrong, and a mailto: link will almost certainly lead to an SMTP exchange, and almost certainly never lead to one involving HTTP or FTP. Would you agree ? (I think that IMAP is a red-herring, in that IMAP is basically a protocol for accessing existing messages from a server rather than for creating new messages).
