<br>
</div>Nope, it's not supposed to. You'd need to drag it there yourself.<br>

<br>
</div>Yes, if you can craft the address properly. An properly formatted<br>
internet email address looks something like the following:<br>
<div class="im"><br>
Dan Smith <<a href="mailto:dsmith@danplanet.com">dsmith@danplanet.com</a>><br>
<br>
</div>Where there is a name and an address. The address is inside the <><br>
brackets and the bit before it is the name. D-RATS uses the name<br>
portion as the destination callsign, and obviously the address needs to<br>
be fixed. So, if your D-RATS address is <a href="mailto:bud@talbot.com">bud@talbot.com</a>, then you can<br>
format a message to be sent to me by sending the mail to the following:<br>
<br>
KK7DS <<a href="mailto:bud@talbot.com">bud@talbot.com</a>><br>
<br>
D-RATS will receive it because of the address. It will then pull out<br>
the "KK7DS" and put that in the destination callsign of the resulting<br>
form and place it in the Outbox.<br>
<br>
Make sense?<br>
