Electronic Mail How to Write HTML links in E-Mail SUMMARY: Write web addresses in e-mail messages that can be clicked.   When writing e-mail that involves telling someone about a webpage, it is recommended to write the complete URL, including the http:// prefix, instead of just writing the last part of the URL. For example, instead of writing www.envprogramming.com in an e-mail message, write http://www.envprogramming.com Why? Many e-mail programs will 'render' such text as a link, letting people quickly and easily click on the link in the e-mail message to view your suggested site. Chances are, more e-mail programs will recognize addresses starting with the http:// prefix than those which do not.   Add: Del.icio.us | Digg | Furl | My Yahoo!   Discuss This Tip Print This Tip Get E-Mail When New Tips are Online Return to the Electronic Mail page.
