Strange enough, some versions of lookOut will make things that look like URLs (and UNCs) clickable even in plain-text messages. At my office, only about a third of the users send HTML-format email, but for the most part lookOut does the right thing. (Now if I could get them to stop sending multihundred K attachments to entire exchange server lists... not my job, though) z! ------------------------------------------------------ Mailman-Users mailing list Mailman-Users@python.org http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/mailman-users Mailman FAQ: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py Searchable Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/mailman-users%40python.org/ Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/mailman-users/archive%40jab.org Security Policy: http://www.python.org/cgi-bin/faqw-mm.py?req=show&file=faq01.027.htp
