There is currently no way of inserting a live hyperlink into an Entourage
message, at least no convenient or straightforward way. You can always
insert the URL, with the http:// prefix, and most e-mail clients should
automatically convert them to active hyperlinks. Also, if you type a link
with a http:// prefix into an HTML message, Entourage will automatically
encode it as a clickable hyperlink. Make sure you enclose the URL in "<>"
brackets to make sure the URL breaks properly and does not get split up at
some point.
ex: <
http://www.microsoft.com/mac/>
An alternative, if you are using Entourage 2004/2008, would be to use Word
2004/2008 to compose your e-mail message, since you can easily create
hyperlinks in that program (select some text, then hit Cmd+K). If Entourage
is configured as your default e-mail client, you can, when you're done
composing your message in Word, go to File>Send To>Mail Recipient (as HTML).
The downside to this method is that once the document has been passed on to
Entourage, you can no longer modify it, or add attachments.
Yet another alternative would be to use Paul Berkowitz's free AppleScript
Make Hyperlinks X, which you can download here:

You can always request that feature by clicking on Help>Send Feedback on
Entourage.
Hello,
What I'm trying to achieve is for my name and company to both be links. I have
HTML tuned on, and I created the HTML in Frontpage but I can't get it to work
when I paste it in the signature box.
Any help is greatly appreciated!!!
Thanks,
Macbeliever
