<noinclude>This template simplifies the addition of clickable email addresses to a page.  It takes one to three parameters, as follows:
  
 
* The first parameter is the local part of the email address.  It's the only required parameter.  If no other parameters are supplied, it assumes the domain is "cs.jhu.edu".  e.g. <code><nowiki>{{mailto|support}}</nowiki></code> → {{mailto|support}}
 
* The first parameter is the local part of the email address.  It's the only required parameter.  If no other parameters are supplied, it assumes the domain is "cs.jhu.edu".  e.g. <code><nowiki>{{mailto|support}}</nowiki></code> → {{mailto|support}}

This template simplifies the addition of clickable email addresses to a page. It takes one to three parameters, as follows:

  • The first parameter is the local part of the email address. It's the only required parameter. If no other parameters are supplied, it assumes the domain is "cs.jhu.edu". e.g. {{mailto|support}}support@cs.jhu.edu
  • The second parameter gives alternate text to display instead of the email address. e.g. {{mailto|steve|Steve DeBlasio}}Steve DeBlasio
  • The third parameter gives an alternate domain. e.g. {{mailto|pgold3|Phil Gold|jhu.edu}}Phil Gold
    • If you want to change the domain without providing alternate link text, use the third parameter's name, "domain". e.g. {{mailto|pgold3|domain=jhu.edu}}pgold3@jhu.edu
