mailto: protocol

i am using mailto: protocol in jump to URL. if i hard code the value
(xyz@.microsoft.com), it works fine. But if i try to use
mailto:Fields!email.Value, it throws out an error to me saying "Invalid URI"
Has anyone faced such kind of problem or has a solution for it?

Thanks!
AshishDid you try this expression:
="mailto:" & Fields!email.Value

gives me an error saying "Invalid URI: Hostname could not be parsed"

email address in the form of name@.abc.com, you will receive that message. I
got around it by setting a default email address to any record that did not
have an email specified.
Hope that helps.

then it throws out that error.
Do you know how we can write the custom mail subject and mail body in that
expression.
