Simplify Inbox: one click to contact?

How can I direct students to contact me (the instructor) using the Canvas Inbox? Using the Inbox involves multiple steps - is it possible to simplify this process for students? Specifically, in my course syllabus I would like to provide a link (or some method other than written directions) for students to contact me using the Inbox rather than my direct email address.
