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".
  • The second parameter gives alternate text to display instead of the email address.
  • The third parameter gives an alternate domain.
    • {{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".
