Sending email using system default mail client

843830Feb 1 2005 — edited Sep 21 2006

I'm working on a project right now, and I have no desire to develop a new mailing system. What would be very convienient for me is to have a call, opening the systems default mail client. Preferrably with some of the fields, like "to" and "Subject" being specifed by me.

I'm not really aware of how the JavaMail system works, but it seems to me like a backend API, able to transmit the mail, but not much else.

Could anyone give some hints on how to open the system default mailer?
