I have to track a link inside a mailto href. I Need the link inside the e-mail body to be tracked with a UTM. Any possible ways I can go about adding this without showing the utm link part in the e-mail?
Example below
<a href="mailto:?subject=subject&body=body http://www.example.com?utm_source=EmailShare&utm_medium=EmailShare&utm_term=EmailShare&utm_content=research&utm_campaign=website ">
No. But (like most e-mail marketing vendors do) you can create a redirect address that you use in your email and that adds the tracking parameters when it redirects to the destination page (or does the the tracking and then redirects).

I am using HTML and my task is to create a portfolio website, I need to embed my Gmail account in the webpage, I am trying it using an anchor tag
userid#gmail.com
I did
userid#gmail.com
This fails !!
I need help, in that href section, I need a supporting link that, when clicked will redirect a user directly to their compose box with my mail id in the To: section
So, apparently though some accident, I stumbled upon the answer, on google classroom, where my professor shared her mail id, which when clicked redirected me on my mail account with Compose open and her mail id entered in the To: section
alright!, I don't know the jargon for it, I think it's Google's Mail API, correct me if I'm wrong.
However, the solution for that is this link:
https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/?view=cm&fs=1&to=userid#gmail.com&tf=1
I only had to put this link in my HTML in the href= section and boom ! it worked
<a href="https://mail.google.com/mail/u/1/?view=cm&fs=1&to=userid#gmail.com&tf=1
">userid#gmail.com</a>
the
userid#gmail.com
is deliberately put as such , you can enter yours as it is !
I saw this link in one of my emails.

How do I format my email (html or url) in such a way to have this effect? Is there also a way to format my email to have a "subscribe" button?
See this link. Gmail (and some other email providers) now check the email for an unsubscribe link and automatically copy it to the email header.
There is as far as I'm aware no way of doing this to subscribe to an email.
So to achieve this just include an unsubscribe link as you would normally.
I've been googling for a while now, but wasn't able to find an answer to this.
What I want to accomplish is the following:
Let's say I have a website that I hide from search engines etc. and that is pretty much only accessible through the direct URL. I want only people whom I send the link to see the site.
On my site I talk about my favourite pizza and link to Joe's Pizza Store.
When one of my visitor clicks the link, Joe's Pizza Store will see my URL as a referrer in their analytics.
Is there anything I can do to my link tags (or otherwise) to obscure the origin?
use rel="noreferrer"
something like this:
sign in
The noreferrer keyword may be used with a and area elements. This
keyword does not create a hyperlink, but annotates any other
hyperlinks created by the element (the implied hyperlink, if no other
keywords create one).
It indicates that no referrer information is to be leaked when
following the link.
If a user agent follows a link defined by an a or area element that
has the noreferrer keyword, the user agent must not include a Referer
(sic) HTTP header (or equivalent for other protocols) in the request.
This keyword also causes the opener attribute to remain null if the
hyperlink creates a new browsing context.

i want to include a text field called feed back and a button called submit in my html page.
now how to redirect this feed back entered by user of my site to my business email?
You can do this with the built in HTML form tags, take a look at this example.
Just change action="MAILTO:someone#example.com" to include your business email address instead.
<img alt="Check out our NEW E-Catalogue" title="Check out our NEW E-Catalogue" src="http:/image" border="0px">
The code above is what I'm using in a HTML email, sent via a email marketing platform.
When hovering over this image in Outlook 2010, and other email clients, the link shows instead of the title text.
Any suggestions?
That's typical behavior to avoid concealing intended link targets. A snippet from the referenced link:
If you code an image that also links to a web page, some email apps (Outlook2000 and Apple Mail) override both the ALT and TITLE, and show the URL of the link instead. They do this for security, so you see where the link takes you before you click.
FWIW, [as an end-user] I'd rather see where a link is going than what the author felt was more appropriate than the link itself. Case in point:
<a href="http://facebouk.com/login.php" title="http://facebook.com/login.php">
Login to facebook
