create a .url document of 2 lines
Authored by: spaceMan on May 06, '02 09:32:15PM

alternate method:
create a text file(BBEdit Lite works nicely!) of naming style:
yourfile.url
use the sample following text <enter> indicates end of line
starts on next line - total 2 lines
[Internet Shortcut]<enter>
mailto:someone@mac.com?subject=Site%20feedback&body=Dear%20Webmaster:<enter>

use the Finder Show Info(or BBedit) to set open with application to your preferred Internet Browser. Now when you double click (or use the open path to file in terminal) you will see your browser interpret and then launch your preferred email-filling in the recipient, subject and start of text body.
try this out, it is a handy time saver for frequent mail templates.
