HTTP command to compile an email in your client

Are you able to send a http command to you notes client that will compile an email, something like:

yourcompany.com - This website is for sale! - yourcompany Resources and Information. address&CCADD=any email address&SUBJ=some text&BDY=sometext

I realise this may have security implications.

You will have to code a LotusScipt or Java Web agent. It’s fairly straight forward to acomplish if you know what you’re doing.

It will work as you describe except the syntax will use ?OpenAgent

Thanks for the response Bradley/Ben. Unfortunately i don’t know what i’m doing, but you have got me going in the right direction. So you’re saying that i should program an agent in Notes, then call the agent with http? how would you pass on the email address, body text etc…

Cheers

You can include it in the URL query string (essentially what you descibed) and extract the information from Session.DocumentContext.Query_String(0).

A better method would be to POST a Form to a web agent rather than using the URL to issue a GET. You are limited to the length of a URL string (4KB if I remember correctly, or possibly only 1KB) but not with posted data.

You can access the Form field values via Session.DocumentContext.Request_Content(0)
