"mailto" from run

[Lloyd Petrey]

It works fine for me and I don't have that C3PO.  
In making MAPI integration between PCDOCS, WP8, and GW work this also made mailto work.
I am GW5.5 on Win98.  I uninstalled GW & WMS.  
I deleted anything I could find that had to do with MAPI.  I think the key was removing FRMCACHE.DAT from C:\WINDOWS\FORMS.
I reinstalled Windows Messaging System (WMS) from the GW5.5 software directory WMS.EXE.  
Then I reinstalled GW5.5.

Yes, this will work with GW (we run 5.5).  You need to make sure that GroupWise is your default mail program.  If you have Outlook on your PC then that is probably registered with Win95 as the default.  You need to get the C3PO from Cool Solutions web site that will sort it out.
Called MLTOINS.EXE and about 107 KB.

Let me know if you cannot get it and I can email it to you directly.

Hope this helps.

Apparently you can use the command "mailto:address?subject" with Eudora and MS Outlook from the run line.... for instance, go to Start | Run and type "mailto:jow at acme.com?"this is a test" and your client will start with the mail addressed to jow at acme.com and the subject line "this is a test"

Is there anyway to get this to work with GroupWise?

When I try it, I get MS outlook tries to launch and then closes and nothign happens.
