Yeah, I used to have the same problem when I was on dial-up (I'm sure
that wasn't the problem), but since I've been 'high-speed', I haven't
had those kinds of messages that you received. I still remember
dialing into CompuServ at 1200 baud, so I ain't complaining too much
<G>.

Oh, I see ... It's not URLs, it's a glitch with the list software and
mine
and other's chief complaint about this list. I routinely have this
problem
when I send any URL, but if I wait a day and send it, it goes no
problems.
It is also not limited to URLs -- if I don't wrap text properly
sometimes or
fail to send it as plain-text or it doesn't like the way something is
quoted
AND sometimes if everything is perfect ... it's an old-school program
that
often goes haywire -- a few weeks ago, it reported that my e-mail
address
was invalid and I had to reply to the e-mail before it would reset and
forward list messages. It was a busy few days and I had several dozen
such
messages, all admitting that the problem had probably been fixed, but I
still had to do it anyway and lost all those messages. Sometimes, it's
enough of a hassle that I think about canceling the list as I have
done in
the past. Thank God I enjoy all the listers and thoughtful postings so
much
or it would be a real issue!

Not my site. Everytime I tried to send the URL with the original
message, the list server bounced it. When I removed it, the server
accepted the message. Thanks, though.

Not sure the entire history behind your URL issues, but for less than
$10/year (less for multiple years at once) you can register a domain
name at
GoDaddy.com with free forwarding service to any URL or IP address.
Mine is
http://www.Mac128.com -- site under development (it's an inexpensive
indulgence which makes it easier for others to find).
