I don’t believe this is possible, since your restricted to HTML or  
something  
that the browser can render. That’s not ruby. This couldn’t be done in  
javascript either since accessing files on the hard drive would be a  
serious  
breach of security.

To open a new mail in your default mail progam use  
[Mail Me!](mailto:removed_email_address@domain.invalid)

However, if you put that on a web page expect spam  
This can help disguise it for  
you.[http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=wMp&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=disguise+email+link+with+javascript&spell=1](http://www.google.com.au/search?hl=en&client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official&hs=wMp&sa=X&oi=spell&resnum=0&ct=result&cd=1&q=disguise+email+link+with+javascript&spell=1)

Good luck

That sounds like a scary intrusion into a users data. Why on earth  
would  
you want to do that?
