Subjects with Email

If you run a website and have an e-mail link, you're bound to get e-mail - possibly lots of it. Unfortunately, much of the e-mail you receive may have a very nondescript subject or none at all, leaving you to have to open every single message using your mail reader to see what the subject is about. There's a better way. Attach the "?subject=SUBJECT" extension to your "mailto:" link and force a subject onto the user (unless they manually change it).

For example, the following e-mails someone@somewhere.com with the subject "Test Message."

<A HREF="mailto:someone@somewhere.com?subject=Test Message">
