I'm resurrecting this feature request from [[Wikipedia:Village pump]]
where it is discussed under "Wikipedia Evangelism".

The point raised was the desirability of an easy way to ask a friend
to comment on the accuracy of an article, or simply to point out an
interesting article to someone.  

How about doing what a lot of news pages do?   Add a box at the bottom
of each article 

[] Send this article to a friend 

along with a java mailer to fire the message off and a text box to add
a note.  Having a linked mailer would eliminate the necessity of
firing up a mail program.
