• Answer:

  Try this MAIL CLASSIC When you are in the NEW....FORWARD or REPLY mode at the top of your text area you will see a box full of icons. If you don't see it you will probably see RICH TEXT. Click on that and it will change to PLAIN TEXT and the box of icons will be displayed. Just to the right of the Yellow face with sunglasses is an icon...Hover your arrow over it and it will say INSERT HYPERLINK. When you click on it a box will appear. Put your web address in there and when you click on OK it will automatically go to the text area and it will be hi lighted. You can't click on it (so I was told), but when your recipients receive it they will be able to click on it to open it up. For your convenience wait until you get to that part of the message you want it in before inserting it in your text.... BETA (Newest version) This is also for when you are in the NEW, FORWARD or REPLY mode. Click on the icon just to the left of the underlined checkmark. Click on that to add a web link. When you click on it the cursor will appear in your text area. type the link that you want there. it will be in plain text at this time. Finish your email and when you start putting in your addresses by placing the cursor in the TO...CC...or BCC line the link will become hilited. NOTE: if the boxes are missing just click on FORMAT located below the SUBJECT line to bring up the icons.
