Thanks Paul for the swift reply

I looked at the man page you mentioned and tried different options like 

claws-mail --compose "mailto:lsiess at ulb.ac.be?subject=test"  --send

but every time a compose window opens and I can't force the content of the email
to be sent ...

any clues ?

Thanks again

Lionel
