    Dear Rolf HV Gustafsson,

    Sincere apologies for misunderstanding you!

    As far as I am concerned, the function you are referring to is the mailto link. To achieve your need, you may try using a mailto link with both the subject and body parameters. Here is the format you can use:

    mailto:your.email@example.com?subject=Your%20Pre-filled%20Subject&body=Your%20Pre-filled%20Content

    When someone clicks on this link, it will open a new email window in their Outlook with the subject line and content pre-filled with "Your Pre-filled Subject" and "Your Pre-filled Content" respectively.

    If you want to pre-fill a multiple line body in an email, you can use the %0A (newline) character to create line breaks in the body of the email. Here is an example of how you can format the mailto link:

    mailto:your.email@example.com?subject=Your%20Pre-filled%20Subject&body=Line%201%0ALine%202%0ALine%203

    When someone clicks on this link, it will open a new email window in their Outlook with the subject line pre-filled with "Your Pre-filled Subject" and the body content pre-filled with:

    Line 1
Line 2
Line 3

    For more info, please kindly refer to Add a return email (mailto:) link in a message - Microsoft Support.

    Appreciate your patience and understanding and thank you for your time and cooperation. I wish you all the best!

    Thanks for reply.

    I have previously used this so that when the sender clicks on my email address, an email window opens in their Outlook with the Subject line pre-filled. Is this function removed nowadays?

    Greetings

    Rolf

    Dear Rolf HV Gustafsson,

    Greetings!

    Thanks for reaching out to this community.

    Based on your description, I understand your query on how to add completed Subject line to email address.

    Unfortunately, upon search and investigation on my end, it isn't feasible to do so. Currently, you may try to create an email message template and ask the recipients to send an email message based on a template as a workaround.

    We do understand your concern about this feature that how it helps you to improve your efficiency in such daily busy work schedule but as it is related with Outlook product design, so it is strongly recommended to submit your valuable feedback directly to Microsoft product development team by either going to Help > submit Feedback or by posting on Outlook · Community (microsoft.com) for feature requests.

    Please note that nobody here are the product developers/decision makers and has no control over the product. Everyone, including us as community moderator, can only assist you on the query for providing available solutions and feature's availability status within our scope and capability.
