How to open a window in when user opens a email

My appologies if I offended you. However, if you are considering writing something that will make someones machine do unexpected things, you have to consider what the reaction will be. What would you think was happening if you recieved an email that did what you describe?

I think it was a perfectly acceptable response, I wish I could leap down the line and rip some peoples lungs out, this guy would have been one of them. Friends like that who needs spammers.

No need buddy. I do understand that at first my request looks like i am going to use it for spamming likd of thing, so it was even mistake from my side to keep unclear things out there... regarding if it happens to me: Yes thats true even i will feel its pishing kind of but only if from unknown sender but if i know the sender also i can see what that promprt is asking to me mostly i can believe the mail but still as all have suggested it's not good idea so i have dropped that thing and thinking to ping my friends some other way... thanks :)

Thats part of the point, I guess - if it could open a window, it could send an email to your entire address book. Which would look like it came from a friend...

Glad you learnt something today. Another thought for you, consider that the people who you are sending your request to DON'T WANT to respond with their birthdays. Many of us refuse to disseminate this type of personal information to anyone but family and very close friends. That is why Griff responded so strongly. What you proposed to send to your friends is considered extremely intrusive.
thanks Mycroft. yes, i will consider your thoughts... may be i belong to india where people are more open and here sharing birthdates are not big deals and also not considered to be very secret information for onself to share with firends... so i feel lots of contradition is there because of the way we live, the way our culture is... :) i will also consider this from next time... thanks :)

If an email did that to me, I would hunt down the sender, and remove large lumps of their body with a rusty [CENSORED] [CENSORED] before [CENSORED] a melon [CENSORED]. Twice. Sideways.

Instead of sending the mail content as plain text, send as html there you could write your javascript. but iam not sure about, how the client machine antivirus will allow this kind of script in the mail content.
thanks sambasivam. i will give it a try... :)
