It only opens Outlook on your computer because that is what is set as the default email client on your computer. On someone else's computer, a mailto link may open a different email app (if a different one set) or show an error (if no email client is set). This is not the fault of FTH, this is how the internet and browsers are designed. Some non-internet explorer browsers handle the mailto links better.

mailto links have always been a kludgy proposition wherever they are used. (fth or other)

I may implement a way to workaround the default flawed mailto behavior defined by your browser in the future.
