Like Microsoft Outlook XP?

but I wouldn't worry about that, because such a client would not be compliant
anyway with the URN/URI/URL specification (which disallows, among other
things, spaces and angle brackets in a URL).

On the other hand, the webmail application my school uses (iPlanet Messenger
Express) correctly identifies a space as an end of URL, but does *not* recognize
a > as an end of URL.

(...) Im having a 'mare with the new links too using Outlook Express 6. It appears to take the link for the thumb and the destination link and merge them meaning any link I have to follow I have to paste into notepad first to dissassemble the parts (21 years ago, 20-Jun-03, to lugnet.admin.general)
