Fortunately, almost any software that supports mailto should support MAPI as well Outlook does, for instance, and so does Mozilla Thunderbird. The drawback to MAPI is that it relies on a MAPI client being installed.
The drawback to SimpleMAPI is that it may be a short-term solution (although it's still around in Win7 64-bit and earlier, I can't speak for Windows 8). Select specific mailbox files from software window and click on the Next button. Choose a folder having multiple mailbox files and click on the Next button.

Import or insert HTML signatures in Outlook. In the Account settings window go to the Signature text section. The quickest, easiest way is to use something like the JEDI Code Library JCLEMail. If you do not know HTML, you can still create an HTML signature using Thunderbirds. (The outbox functionality is usually restricted now because of changes to Windows security, especially where MS Outlook is concerned.) A signature is a block of text that is added automatically when you. You can also choose whether to show the user's email client "compose" window or add directly to the outbox. You can use MAPI instead (the Messaging Applications Programming Interface), which gives you much better control over the email, and allows things like attachments.
