Fast e-mail

Do you regularly send an E_Mail to one person and would like a shortcut on the Desktop without having to open Outlook etc.? Here is how:-

Right-click in an empty space on your desktop and on the menu that pops up, highlight New, and then left-click on Shortcut.

In the box which states Create a Shortcut In the blank line in the box, type mailto: and then the e-mail address of the person that you want to e-mail all of the time. E.g. mailto:Lindburgh@********* Left-click on Next.

In the next box (in the blank line), type in the name of the person that you are creating the shortcut for. (E.g. Lindburgh (E-Mail). Left-click on Finish.

Sadly with terrible Vista the Icon is the same as Outlook. So you will need to create a new Icon as explained in another tip.

What about that for convenience?
