How to create a link in an entourage email message

David Elliott

Hello knowledgeable entourage users,
I have been wanting to learn how to create links in an email using
entourage. I find if I type in a web address and I am in HTML sometimes it
goes through the email to the receiver as an active link, sometimes it does
not. I need to know how to do this? Is there a procedure to follow? Thank
you. Please reply. David

When you compose a message the links do not appear active, but they are.
Just save the message as a draft and you will then see the active links.

Enclose the URL with < and > viz: <http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> so that
if the URL wraps over more than one line, it will still work when it gets
there. Don't forget to format with the http:// prefix.

If you are sending HTML messages and your recipient is in Outlook or Outlook
Express WINDOWS, they don't get Entourage's type of clickable links. If
that's the case, get

Make Hyperlinks

That doesn't apply as long as you are using Office X 10.1.4 or later. Make
sure your copy of Entourage is up-to-date.
