Sometimes, no matter the reason, you can't seem to make a link a hyperlink. If that is your problem, read this. It might be just what you need.

Steps

  1. 1
  2. 2
  3. 3
  4. 4
  5. 5
    Click the corresponding link that corresponds to the action you would like to take.
  6. 6
    Type your message.
  7. 7
    Type in the exact URL address just like you would any other link, by either the Copy&Paste method or just rote-memorization typing.
    • By preference, try to learn and use the (http://www.) portion of the address link formatting, when typing your link. The system will better be able to pick up the link as a hyperlink address when the recipients computer receives this information and translates it to the user's computer.
  8. 8
    Type a space after the last character. The system will interpret the codes into the hyperlink you'll need, already inserted into the email.

Things You'll Need
