first off, make sure that the content you want to be in the body is 
assigned;
( content_var = "text submitted in texarea" )

and then:

mail_to "email@someplace", "Mail to someplace", :body =>
content_var

which will create a link

<a href="mailto: 
email@someplace?body=text%20submitted%20in%20text%20area">
   Mail to someplace
</a>

neat enough?
btw, generally speaking, there is a cool api for ruby on rails called, 
(suprisingly enough) api.rubyonrails.com

 i found the above info right here:

  http://api.rubyonrails.com/classes/ActionView/Helpers/UrlHelper.html#M000492

hth,
shai
