OL2000, Hyperlink doesn't work when saved as .oft format

[Guest]

Hi,
I am creating a notification template in outlook 2000, and I insert an email
address (hyperlink) and when at the end I save it as .oft fromat, the email
address ( hyperlink) inside the template ( body of the email) doesn't work.
Any idea what should I do?
Thank you
