Link in email with own protocol

rbuser

Hi,

it is possible to insert a hyperlink with a standard protocol (http,
ftp, file, ...) into an email.

Is there a way to insert a clickable hyperlink with a userdefined
protocoll (e.g. 'myprot://Project_1')

The protocol 'myprot' is registered with my app which should start upon
click on this link.

But in a textmail this is not going to be a hyperlink.

So the question is, can I create a HTML mail from RBuilder?

Thank you for your help,
Josef

Hi Josef,

The native email plugins do not support html inside the body of the email.

I believe it is possible to change the content type of a message in Indy
so html is supported. You would need to customize the Indy plugin a bit
to support this. I found the following link on-line.

It is also technically possible to support html using the Outlook
plugin. See the commented code located in the AssignMessageToSMTP
routine for how this can be done.
