Hi and welcome to devnet,
AFAIK, no it's not. What is your use case ?

@SGaist I need my app to send an email to a specific destination when a certain action happens, it works fine with mailto, but it doesn't send automatically.

On the user's behalf ?
For "no intervention required" mail sending, you would rather have to implement that within your application. -

Don't forget to let your users know that it will happen. Having an application phoning home without people knowing will not be a good thing.

@SGaist It is an internal application of my company, users are collaborators and are aware that the system can rely on this tool. Is there a way to send it automatically with mailto?

AFAIK, no.
Are you using C++ ?
If so, you can use the curl library for example to send your email. -
