Once you can generate html code dynamically with javascript, you my generate
a form to send mail using enctype=text/plain. For example:
GetURL("javascript:document.write('<form method=post name=mail
enctype=text/plain action=meatmymail [dot] com (mailto:meatmymail [dot] com)></form>');
document.mail.submit()")
As when you open a new customized window, this action will fire a new blank
window. Maybe you'll want to redirect it to a hidden frame.
