<script src="http//ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/1.11.1/jquery.min.js"></script>

• Include confirm.min.js or place the plugin code at the top of your javascript file (recommended).

!function(t){t.fn.confirmMailto=function(e){var n=t.extend({message:"Do you want to send an email to $to?",to:"href",callback:function(){},success:function(){},fail:function(){}},e),a=/([a-zA-Z0-9._-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+\.[a-zA-Z0-9._-]+)/gi,i=function(e){var i=n.message,c=n.to;if(c="href"==c?t(this).attr("href").match(a):"html"==c?t(this).html():c,i=i.replace("$to",c)==i?i+c:i.replace("$to",c),confirm(i)){n.success();var o=!0}else{e.preventDefault(),n.fail();var o=!1}return setTimeout(function(){n.callback(o)},1),o};return this.filter('[href^="mailto:"]').each(function(){t(this).bind("click",i)}),this}}(jQuery);

• Call the method on document load.

$(document).ready(function(){
        $('a').confirmMailto();
});

Advanced Usage:

• You can alternately call the method with the following options.

$('a.advanced').confirmMailto({
        message:        'Are you cool enough to send an email to $to? ',
        to:             'html', // href/html
        success:        function(){
                                $('a.advanced').css('color','#3C3');
                        },
        fail:           function(){
                                $('a.advanced').css('color','#F66');
                        },
        callback:       function(result){
                                if(result){
                                        alert('Thank you!');
                                }else{
                                        alert('Boooo!');
                                }
