Create custom button with prepopulated values to send email

Hi Everyone,

We have a custom URL button on the Task object.

Button URL : /_ui/core/email/author/EmailAuthor?p2_lkid={!ContactId}&rtype=003&p3_lkid={!CaseId}&retURL={!CaseId}&p24={!Account.Additional_Contacts__c}

'Account.Additional_Contacts__c' is custom field in Account object. It contains more than one email Id separating with a semicolon (;)
This button was created in Salesforce classic version. It is not working in lightning experience.

How to create a button with the same functionality in the lightning experience?

Please help in this scenario.

Thanks,
Sreenivasulu A.

Hi Shivankur,

Thank you for your quick response.
This solution is working in the Classic version. But not working for Salesforce lightning experience. My question is, how to implement the same functionality for lightning.
