There's nothing in any formal mail specification that says that this should work. In some ways, it's fortunate that it does. In other ways, it's unfortunate that it does. It's probably easier to tell your sister to highlight the link, copy it to the clipboard, open up a browser, and paste the link in. This will work no matter what browser or e-mail package she ever users on any platform. -- Ed Wilts, Mounds View, MN, USA mailto:ewilts@xxxxxxxxxx Member #1, Red Hat Community Ambassador Program
