Better Email Tag?

[oldiesmann]

I just realized that there's no way to link text to an email address (ie like posting a web address with a title, except clicking on the title would launch the default email client instead of going to a website). I tried using the url tag, which didn't work because it stuck an http:// at the beginning of the mailto: line, and then when I tried the email tag, it didn't work right... Examples:

Code Select Expand

[url=mailto:[email protected]]Click here to mail me![/url]

produces:
Click here to mail me!

while when trying to do something similar with the email tag produces:
Click here to mail me!

Can someone tell me how to modify the current email tag to work like the url tag (only with email addresses instead of web addresses)?

Ok. Nevermind... Turns out the code is already there... The board I was originally trying that on is a 1.41 board (they're going to upgrade it soon)... I tried it on my Lycos board which is 1.52 and it worked...
