While Salesforce’s testing capabilities are sufficient for running small deliverability tests or previewing your emails, they may not be enough for inspecting and debugging emails in detail. Plus, some methods may bear the risk of spamming contacts with test emails.

HTML is nearly as old as the internet, and so is one of its most common schemes: mailto. And, even though so many things have changed since then, good ol’ mailto is still widely used and taught in HTML courses all around the world.

The way it works is very simple. When placed behind a text and clicked/tapped afterward, it triggers a default email client to be opened and a new email message creator pops up on a screen. Usually, one or more fields are already pre-populated to make life easier for a sender (and make typos, and subsequent email bounces, impossible).

We’re going to explore different methods of customizing  html mailto links. We’ll also talk about whether it’s still a good approach in the 2020s, and whether there are any viable alternatives. Let’s start!

Executing transactions is not atomic and takes time. For example, a single UPDATE statement might modify multiple rows, and the database system needs time to update each row. During this update process, another transaction might start and attempt to read the modified rows. This raises the question: should the other transaction read the new values of the rows (even if not all rows are updated yet), the old values of the rows (even if some rows have been updated), or should it wait? What happens if the first transaction must be canceled later for any reason? How should this affect the other transaction? Read on to understand!
