Now here's something else I just tried: I opened up this G3-5 webpage in Safari, clicked on the links in my own message above, and got the same error: "Safari can't open the page." Then I quit Safari, opened up this page in Firefox, clicked on the same links in the message again, and the linked p

Re: Mail messages containing eBay links don't work (the links)

Thanks for the suggestions everybody. Nothing has worked so far. Bruce, I cleared the caches, and made sure the entire URL could be seen all on one line in the eBay messages, but the problem remains: links to my eBay auctions in e-mail notices from eBay still fail to open the linked webpage in Sa

Re: Mail messages containing eBay links don't work (the links)

Have a very careful look for embedded spaces in URLs that get anywhere near Apple's mail application. URLs cannot have spaces in them! They must be encoded with %=20 if they're really needed. The mail APPL uses content type format-flowed with a desp = yes option. That is a fairly new addition

That is a little odd! I am not on Safari 4 and I can open my ebay links just fine (just tried one). I am using Eudora though so it does sound like it's more of an application specific issue Diane --~--~-~--~~~---~--~~ You received this message because you are s

Mail messages containing eBay links don't work (the links)

Here's a new problem I'm having with Leopard's Mail (10.5.6), and I don't know if it's a problem with Mail or with Safari 3.2.1. When I sell an item on eBay, I get an e-mail from eBay letting me know. In this eBay message is a button labeled "Send Invoice" that is supposed to take me to an eBay w
