Okay so there in terms of what you will be able to do in this regard with the HTML5 engine there are two feasible options as far as I can see:

1) "launch url" with a 'mailto:' URL. This would invoke the locally configured email client (and is what revMail does). This won't (I believe) work in the HTML5 engine yet because we haven't hooked it up (to my knowledge at least). I *think* this would be possible - Peter could perhaps comment. (It would ask the hosting web-browser to launch the url).

2) Put a web-service on a server and get that to send the email. This requires no client-side email configuration but does require configuring a web-service to do it. Indeed, there might be third party services out there which could be used. Again, Peter would have to comment on the feasibility of whether this would work in the HTML5 engine at the moment since I cannot recall off the top of my head which (if any) URL primitives we have yet implemented.

Warmest Regards,

Mark.
