It is very simple.
There is an excellent technote on the subject at the macromedia site,
#14072, by Tommi West and Bentley Wolfe.
Good luck

To make a Get URL call up the default email client with your choice of
addressee, use this syntax in the URL window:
mailto:na...@domain.com
To send to more than one address, use a comma and a space between addresses,
i.e.:
mailto:na...@domain.com, na...@domain.com
To also include a predefined subject line, use this syntax:
mailto:na...@domain.com?subject=and%20then%20percent%20two-zeros%20for%20spac
es
...where, as the text would indicate, you would use "%20" to generate spaces
between words of the text to be entered in the Subject text entry box. (Try
it, you'll see -- click on the link; just don't send it or you'll get it
back undeliverable.)
Note: This Get URL/mailto method ONLY works if the movie is being displayed
in a browser AND the browser has been "informed" of the presence of a
default email client (the latter, normally automatic, but not always). If
you are displaying the movie with the stand-alone player or as a projector
file, you will have to do some additional tricks to launch the email client,
which, incidentally, are different depending on whether PC or Mac. For more
on this, see http://www.flashlite.net

No, Urami -- actions placed in the state frames of a button have no effect.
Actions must be applied to an instance of a button.

This latter one is the correct method.
now you all set ...
