SUMMARY OF PROBLEM
------------------

The mailto: URL of Lynx for Win 32 no longer works.  I
get a message, "must specify recipient."  I set it up
according to SENDMAIL.TXT, etc, and in fact,
at one time, the mailto: did work -- here's an example:

To:        <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Return-Path: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>
Delivered-To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
Received: (qmail 974 invoked by uid 0); 3 Mar 2000 02:15:09 -0000
Received: from ip36.morristown9.nj.pub-ip.psi.net (HELO
netzero.net) (38.26.194.36)
  by mail16.wlv.netzero.net with SMTP; 3 Mar 2000 02:15:09 -0000
X-URL: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]
X-Mailer: Lynx, Version 2.8.2rel.1
Subject: test 10 ly win98
Mime-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 7bit

HERE ARE THE DETAILS:
---------------------

I have tried both 
URL: http://www.jim.spath.com/lynx_win32/lynx_w32.zip
   and
2.8.2rel.1 (last stable)  from fdisk.com  (this is
the version that worked originally).

I am running Windows 98.  BTW other mailers, including
Pine, are working fine.


I DID PUT LYNX IN THE PATH (in autoexec.bat):

   <DOS WINDOW>

Microsoft(R) Windows 98
   (C)Copyright Microsoft Corp 1981-1999.
C:\WINDOWS>path
PATH=C:\WINDOWS;C:\WINDOWS\COMMAND;C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM;\C:\LYNX
C:\WINDOWS>

   </DOS WINDOW>


MY SENDMAIL LINE (ON ONE LINE) FROM LYNX.CFG:

SYSTEM_MAIL:sendmail -f [EMAIL PROTECTED] -h netzero.net 
                       -r mail.netzero.net -m SMTP

also tried (on one line):

SYSTEM_MAIL:c:\lynx\sendmail -f [EMAIL PROTECTED] 
              -h netzero.net -r mail.netzero.net -m SMTP


MY LYNX.BAT:

@ECHO OFF
set term=vt100
set home=c:\lynx
set temp=c:\temp
set lynx_cfg=c:\lynx\lynx.cfg
c:\lynx\lynx.exe %1 %2 %3 %4 %5

HERE'S THE WHAT LYNX REPORTS AFTER I USE 
GOTO ->  MAILTO:[EMAIL PROTECTED]

Sending your message...
Sending your comment:
$ c:\lynx\sendmail -f [EMAIL PROTECTED] -h netzero.net
SMTP @c:\temp\00034bf3.blt
Please wait...Must specify recipient


The mailto feature is very convenient and I use it a lot.

CAN ANYONE SOLVE THIS PROBLEM?
