Hello David, On Sunday, March 31, 2002, at 10:06:28 AM (-0700), you typed the following in reference to "More Visual Problems !":

Have a look > at Bugtrack: > https://bt.ritlabs.com/view_bug_advanced_page.php?f_id=0000313 I received a Reply from Ben Mills on this very subject, and he reported the following from RFC2396: RFC2396 (URI: Generic Syntax): "For resiliency, programs interpreting URI should treat upper case letters as equivalent to lower case in scheme names (e.g., allow "HTTP" as well as "http")." Now I must admit that I have searched through that RFC and cannot find the section nor sentence he quoted, but I am sure that a Uniform Resource Indicator can be either upper or lower case... It should not matter. The fact that TB renders those URI's differently between the RTV and the Fixed-width Viewer is reason enough to wonder what Standard RITLabs is adhering to. Besides, every other Mail Client I've tried, including Outlook, Eudora (both of which are pretty main stream) and Becky all render the mixed case URI's properly as hot links. TB and SecureBat's RTV is the *only* Client... and even at that we are only talking about the RTV... not to conform to the Standard, or so it would appear. Is it a bug? I suppose it all depends on who you are talking to. ;o) From where I sit, if it's not a bug then at the very least RITLabs are not following a generally accepted protocol.
