You can use the URL Syntax for sending an email; and open it up in a URLRequest along with navigateToURL. Something like this:

var request:URLRequest = new URLRequest("mailto:[email protected]?Subject=Hello&Body=SomeText");
navigateToURL(request);

This basically, passes the request onto the operating system who will handle it. There is no way to guarantee that outlook will be the default email client opened up. I haven't done this in years, so if memory serves me not all mail clients support the 'body' attribute to prepopulate the emails body text.
