I want to know as to how someone can email me directly from my Flash site. For example I want to keep an email address,([someone@domain.com](mailto:someone@domain.com)), and when the user clicks on the address, he is directed to his default emailing facility (Outlook Express), and from there he can write the email to me.
Thanx\<:}
