That's completely dependent on *your* email client. My primary email client (Claris Emailer) doesn't support active links. PowerMail, which I'll be adopting when I go X, even turns "www.dpreview.com" into an active link. The best and most widely supported format for posting URLs in email and elsewhere is to put the entire thing between less than and greater than signs, like this: <http://lowendmac.com> More email clients will turn this format into an active link than any other format.
