<p dir="auto">Yes, this is because arbitrary <code style="margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0.25em; border-radius: 3px; background-color: #F7F7F7;">mailto:</code> links cannot be expected to include valid Markdown body text. It does work if triggering <code style="margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0.25em; border-radius: 3px; background-color: #F7F7F7;">mailto:</code> via AppleScript or the <code style="margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0.25em; border-radius: 3px; background-color: #F7F7F7;">emate</code> command (where MailMate knows you control the body text).</p>

<p dir="auto">I haven't added an option for this, but I don't think it happens unless there's an actual body text provided in the <code style="margin: 0 0; padding: 0 0.25em; border-radius: 3px; background-color: #F7F7F7;">mailto:</code> link, but I might be wrong.</p>
