UriSchemes/mailto
From W3C Wiki
- spec: The mailto URL scheme
ProxyTopic; see IANA registry. See also other UriSchemes. (hmm...?)
note that callto: and mailto: are misnomers. URIs are noun phrases. You can do other things with phone numbers than call them; for example, you could have a web page of your history with a caller pop up in response to the phone ringing (e.g. using caller id. (c) 1998 Jamie Zawinski <jwz@jwz.org> )
Some registration data from an old index, using NotationThree, assuming TheUsualPrefixes:
