URI of the mailto: scheme (RFC 6068) that opens a new email message: one or more email addresses separated by commas, optionally followed by ? and header fields such as subject, cc or body. Web pages use it in mailto: links, and Wikidata stores email addresses (property P968) in this form. Spaces and other special characters in the header values are percent-encoded.
