There is this one

...but it doesn't quite do what I'm after. It's nice, but what I need is a  
way to link to a contact form with a dynamic recipient list, with the  
recipient selected.

I'd be quite happy to replace all the email links with links to a contact  
page myself then disable email links.

The bit that's bothering me at the moment is how to link to the contact  
page so that the recipient is selected depending on the link?

index.php?id=contact&sendto=this

What to put? I've tried many combinations...

...I don't really want to make a seperate contact page so that each  
recipient can appear as default on each page or something. Just one page  
where the user can choose the recipient from the dropdown, and it's  
pre-selected depending on the link pointing to it.

Am I asking too much? :(
