OK, but did enclosing the URL in the angle brackets preserve the URL,
as compared to not using them? That's what I'd meant about using them...
some newsreaders handle the links them correctly without, but all do so
with. My newsreader can handle them, but somehow a null character often
gets added at the beginning when it gets to the browser.
If "http://" is present at the beginning, it works fine (absent a
multi-line URL), but if it just starts "www.domain.com" then it's not
automatically recognized properly.
