I'm using Konqueror as my browser, click on an Email To: link and it launches KMail with the Email of the recepient and depedning on the link an appropriate message.

How can I achieve the same using Evolution? KDE Control Center->Component Chooser->Email Client allows me to launch Evolution but it does just that but without the email addy etc.

Thanks for the reply,
Code:
evolution --compose
works, passing of the recipient doesn't, I've tried a number of combinations but so far no luck.

I'm intrigued where you found the --compose argument from as my searches in Google, kde.org, docs etc have thus far all been fruitless.

%t

LOL found the answer from the tooltip within the control center on hovering over the input box.
