Assumed that you are aware of the shortcomings of e-mail as medium
for transferring data etc.: yes, it is possible. You may use the
getURL() JavaScript Doc object method with the mailto: protocol.
If you have a properly configured system, this will open your web
browser which then will immediately open the configured mail client.
If you can make sure that your users have the full version of
Acrobat, you can also use the mailMsg() JavaScript App object method.
Hope, this can help.
