Sure. As the target URL enter:

mailto:me@server.com

Use your own email address, of course.

- Create a button.

- Right-click if (in Form Edit mode) and select Properties.

- Switch to the Actions tab and add a MouseUp trigger with an "Submit a Form" command:

- Enter the "mailto" code given above as the target URL and select the option to submit the complete document.

It should look like this:

- Press OK and you're done.
