title: mailto fails in IE where there is a long body text. Is there any way to resolve this?
body: <p>I am having a problem using Internet Explorer 8 (IE8) to open mailto links with long messages.  </p>
  
  <p>After the user clicks on the link, IE changes to an about:blank page and never completes the call to outlook to create an email</p>
  
  <p>Here's an example:</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href="mailto:name@name.com?subject=123456789&amp;amp;body=111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111111"&gt;mailto fails in IE8&lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>If I shorten the list of 1's, the email is generated and can be sent.</p>
  
  <p>Is this a known IE issue?  What are the limitations?</p>
