//#EDIT THIS ONLY Set whichService to be your webmail service. If using yahoo, you must set your yahooServer.
var whichService = "Gmail"; //use "gmail" or "yahoo"* *new Yahoo Mail (beta) users: mailto links open in the old version. This is only for that session.
var showAlert = false; //use true or false (no quotes!) **Hotmail & Aim Mail users: Sorry, but hotmail & aim mail don't support this. I may try to see if I can get these to work. I'm also open to suggestions.
var openNewWindow = true; //set to false to have email composer open in the same window. leave as true to have it open in a new window or tab (gmail will automatically close).
//Advanced options:
var gmailDomain = ""; // If using GoogleApps, and have gmail on your domain, set this to be your domain name without the www(example "efoxdesigns.com")
var yahooServer = "us.f576" //if using yahoo, you will have to put your server here. to find this, log into your yahoo email account (make sure your at your mail).
//Your server is the part right between "http://" and ".mail.yahoo..." it will look something like us.f576 (http://us.f306.mail.yahoo...)
//#END EDIT That's all. You're done. Sit back and watch mailto links open in your web-based email client
