I don't have Entourage, but for Outlook Express I use something like this
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
tell document "Price Quote"
set vemail to cell "Pre Work Orders::Email Address"
set vsubject to "Always In Season Plant Proposal"
set vattchNum to 1
set vcontent to cell "Email Content" & "</body></html>"
end tell
end tell
tell application "Outlook Express"
set myMsg to make new outgoing message with properties
{subject:vsubject, address:vemail, content:vcontent, has html:true}
send myMsg with sending later
end tell
tell application "FileMaker Pro"
activate
end tell

You can also use the "Open URL" command in FileMaker's Script Maker and them
do a command like:
"mailto:"; & Pre Work Orders::Email Address & "?subject=Always In Season
Plant Proposal&body=<html><body><h1>a message goes here.</h1>" & Pre Work
Orders::PQ Comments & "</body></html>"
