What do you mean by "if the link is not automatically a link"?
normally, you just type the address (such as (e-mail address removed) ) and
press space or enter and then it is formatted as an email address and the
link is activated.
Sorry, I'm confusing the issue.
All I'm trying to do is figure out how to make it so that EVERY email
address in EVERY email I get (whether HTML or plaintext) is highlighted, and
clicking on it opens a new email addressed to that person.
When you asked me to test the message to myself, it didn't work, because
links to email addresses will only show up when they're HTML links in
HTML-formatted emails. But even addresses in HTML-formatted emails aren't
highlighted if they're not sent as links (i.e.,
"mailto:
[email protected]"). That link is created automatically (as
you've indicated) in outgoing HTML-formatted email messages. But that
doesn't solve the problem, since I need it to be with plaintext as well.
Is there an option on a menu somewhere that I haven't been able to find?
I'm going insane with this tiny insignificant problem, which has been my
experience with Outlook overall.
As an email client, I find Outlook Express incredibly intuitive, and I find
Outlook cumbersome, confusing, and extremely difficult to customize. I'm
hoping it's just me, and that once I get my head around it, I'll be able to
use it as efficiently as I used OE.
Your help is greatly appreciated! Please advise.
