A past post from Shlomo Perets...though the sample never worked for me for some reason: =================================== BEGIN ========================================== A mailto: link in Acrobat is treated as a web link, thus Acrobat launches the web browser to handle this link when it is activated. Applications can directly launch the default e-mail program to handle a mailto: link, without launching a web browser. Acrobat internally supports direct activation of e-mail links (bypassing the web browser). But when such links are activated, the standard security message is displayed, letting you know that you are about to start another application (can be suppressed for the duration of the session). For a sample PDF with e-mail links which bypass the web browser, see http://www.microtype.com/showcase/MailtoDirect.pdf (29K) [ The links were defined in FrameMaker through custom hypertext markers with a TimeSavers custom shortcut-source .mif file + .pdf are in: http://www.microtype.com/showcase/MailtoDirect.zip, 38K ] Shlomo Perets MicroType * http://www.microtype.com FrameMaker, Acrobat training & consulting * FM-to-Acrobat TimeSavers/Assistants ==================================== END ================================================ So unless you're using Framemaker and his Timesavers, then no, don't think you can prevent it.
