Renders a link formatted to send an email (`mailto:` link).
- Use the `email`, `subject` and `body` props to create a `<a>` element with an appropriate `href` attribute.
- Use `encodeURIcomponent` to safely encode the `subject` and `body` into the link URL.
- Render the link with `children` as its content.
```jsx
const Mailto = ({ email, subject = '', body = '', children }) => {
let params = subject || body ? '?' : '';
if (subject) params += `subject=${encodeURIComponent(subject)}`;
if (body) params += `${subject ? '&' : ''}body=${encodeURIComponent(body)}`;
return <a href={`mailto:${email}${params}`}>{children}</a>;
};
```
```jsx
ReactDOM.render(
<Mailto email="foo@bar.baz" subject="Hello & Welcome" body="Hello world!">
Mail me!
</Mailto>,
document.getElementById('root')
);
```
