The "To:" field gets filled in but the URL in the subject line isn't correct (I have to copy and paste it). As a result, I don't report as many posts as I'd like to. Many forums (e.g DVD Forums) have a simple web form to make a report instead, much easier and quicker.
Many people use web-based email which doesn't work with the "mailto:" links.
mailto doesn't work for me either. I have my computer set to use yahoo as my default - when I click a mailto it opens up yahoo mail in a new page with the to and subject field filled in
But for some reason it strips the thread number away from the subject so I have to cut and paste0 -
as well as this perhaps have the extension of a webform with a pull down option to allow people to easily say referal / bad lang / abuse / copyright etc without the need to type anything they just have to select the pull down but can leave extra comments if required?0
