qr code mail

I'm trying to find a good home for Dixie my dog. So the idea I had is to create a poster with her picture, and a QR barcode with quick response email that can be scanned and quickly sent to me by any prospective takers.

There are two ways of generating a QR code that contains a mail message:

1) using mailto format
here you simply write the all your fields in one line like this:

mailto:obama@whitehouse.gov?subject=Congrats%20Obama&body=Enjoy%20your%20stay%0ARegards%0A[Name]

you can use any of these fields:
cc
bcc
subject

The first separator has to be a ? and any subsequent ones have to be a &. Multiple email addresses can be separated by ,. Space have to be encoded as %20 and new lines as %0A.


2) using MATMSG format
here you write out you message in ; separated fields, starting with MATMSG:

MATMSG:
TO:obama@whitehouse.gov;
SUB:Congrats Obama;
BODY: Enjoy your stay
Regards
[Name];;


I have not seen CC and BCC fields but I guess you could just try to add them. Remember to close each line with a ; and end with ;;

Then once you have constructed you message you can use any QR code generator on the web to generate you a barcode. Here is a basic one: http://ctrlq.org/qrcode/
