mailto: can automatically trigger the system’s default email client and pre-fill the recipient, CC, BCC, subject, and body content.

Parameter details:
mailto:: Recipient(s), separate multiple with ;
cc: CC recipient(s), separate multiple with ;
bcc: BCC recipient(s), separate multiple with ;
subject: Subject line
body: Email body content

Just connect the parameters using &.

Example: <a mailto:\*\*\*@\*\*\*.com?subject=this is subject&body=this is body>…<a>

Note: In Elementor, you should enter mailto:\*\*\*@\*\*\*.com?subject=this is subject&body=this is body directly into the hyperlink option of the text editor.
