Maybe I'm coming in late to this thread, but if the body of the email is
less than 1k have you considered just sending it along as a param in the
url?:
on mouseUp
put "[email protected]" into tAddress
put "Hello!" into tSubject
put "This is the body"&cr&"of the email." into tBody
put "mailto:"&; tAddress & "?" \
& "subject="& tSubject &"&" \
& "body="& tBody into tEmailURL
launch url tEmailURL
end mouseUp
I use this to have customers send bug reports, and I can grab the OS
version, my app's version, screenRect, and other useful info along with
the relevant portion of the executionContexts all within the size limit
on the URL passed to most email clients.
So far the only really restrictive client I've come across in years is
GMail, which apparently allows only ~512 chars; everything else our
users have tested on allows at least 1k, which has been plenty to get
the info I need from them.
