location.replace('/email/author/emailauthor.jsp?retURL=/{!Case.Id}&p3_lkid={!Case.Id}&rtype=003&p2_lkid={!Case.ContactId}&template_id=00X90000000EScf&p24={!Case.email_to__c}');

You need to have the value of the email__c field passed in as a parameter and that should help you send the email - the only thing to consider here is the link talks about a specific email template that can be sent - do you have a similar requirement?
And yes, I have an specific email template that I want to send but I'm new in this and I don't know how to passed the value of the email__c as a parameter? by any chance do yo have any example?
location.replace('/email/author/emailauthor.jsp?retURL=/{!Case.Id}&p3_lkid={!Case.Id}&rtype=003&p2_lkid={!Case.ContactId}&template_id=00X90000000EScf&p24={!Case.email_to__c}');
Hello Sonam, can I bother you with another question?
The button works perfectly but when I click on it some field that are in my email template doesn't show
For example:
{!OT__c.Date__c}
Good Morning {!OT__c.Client_Name__c}
do you know why?
and thank you.
David.
p3_lkid={!CaseOT__c.Id}
Are the other merge fields working?
location.replace('/_ui/core/email/author/EmailAuthor?p24={!OT__c.Email_Client__c}&retURL=%2F{!OT__c.Id}&template_id=00X17000000M3co');
when I tried to use p3_lkid= it appeared this error:
The value of the "p3_lkid" parameter contains a character that is not allowed or the value exceeds the maximum allowed length. Remove the character from the parameter value or reduce the value length and resubmit. If the error still persists, report it to our Customer Support team. Provide the URL of the page you were requesting as well as any other related information.
the values that I used for p3_lkid= were:
{!OT__c.Id} error
{!OT__c.Name} error
{!CaseOT__c.Id} can't save
{!Case.OT__c.Id} can't save
can you please confirm you are using the syntax as follows:
ocation.replace('/_ui/core/email/author/EmailAuthor?p24={!OT__c.Email_Client__c}&p3_lkid={!OT__c.Id}&retURL=%2F{!OT__c.Id}&template_id=00X17000000M3co');
I have a requirement where i need to send an email to a particular email address(just one) when you click on a button on Quote Object. Can you please help me with the work around. Thanks in advance
