It's in an A tag: (I've munged some of the href's characters in this post) <td height=3D"60" colspan=3D"3" align=3D"center" valign=3D"middle= "><font face=3D"Arial" color=3D"#666666" style=3D"font-size:10px"><a titl= e=3D"View Email Online link" href=3D"http://example.media.xyz.com.au:80/t= rack?t=3Dv&mid=3D45671&msgid=3D87652&did=3D87641&edid=3D26341&sn=3D374852= 7545&eid=3df...@example.stuff.net&eeid=3df...@example.stuff.net&uid=3D9= 56897&rid=3D234564&erid=3D234564&fl=3D&mvid=3D&extra=3D&&&2000&eu=3D425&&= &viewonline" style=3D"color: #666666">Click here if you cannot view this = email properly</a></span><br />=20 > What happens if you open the attachment in the attachment menu? > That will use w3m to display the message instead of just using w3m > as a filter.
