Re: HTML in Email

Hi,

While we're on the question of email, which of the following hyperlinks can 
you click on and be taken to a website?  I'm asking because so many 
newsletters have links which AOL users cannot click on, and I was wondering 
if the way round it looked a mess in *proper* text email programs.

http://www.webstandards.org      Renders as normal text in AOL 4.
<A HREF="http://www.webstandards.org">http://www.webstandards.org</A>   
Written as a proper HTML hyperlink and renders in AOL 4
<http://www.webstandards.org>  Renders as text again.

Finally, Does anyone use The Bat! (http://www.ritlabs.com/the_bat/) as their 
email program?  Got any feedback?

TIA
Peter.
