Why does my mailto link break with long body text?

Long body text needs proper percent-encoding. Carbide handles this automatically, so spaces become %20, line breaks become %0A, and so on — the generated link is always safe to use.

Can I add multiple recipients to Cc or Bcc?

Yes — separate multiple addresses with commas in the Cc or Bcc fields. Carbide encodes each one correctly.

Will the link work on mobile as well as desktop?

Yes. A mailto: link opens the default mail app on iOS, Android, Windows, and macOS — whatever the user has set as their default.

Is the QR code stored anywhere?

No. The QR code is generated entirely in your browser from the link you built. Nothing is sent to Carbide's servers.

What it does

Mailto Link Generator in Carbide builds a correctly encoded mailto: URL in seconds — fill in the To, Cc, and Bcc addresses, add a subject line, and write the body text. Carbide handles all the percent-encoding so special characters, line breaks, and accented letters arrive intact. Copy the raw mailto: link to embed in a document, grab the ready-to-paste HTML anchor tag, or share the whole link as a QR code that anyone can scan to open it in their mail app. No server is involved at any stage — everything is generated locally in your browser with no sign-up and no data collection. It is especially handy for web developers building contact buttons, support teams creating templated email links, and anyone who needs a reliable clickable email link without wrestling with URL encoding.
