Michael, Most of the more commonly used or standard mail clients today allow the sender to put in a URL address and encodes it so the recipient can just click on URL in the message body and have it launch their browser taking them automatically to that URL. It is a real convenience to those of use using the more commonly used mime compliant mail clients. Tom's mailer is not the one double sending the message. It is a quirk of some mail clients to decode and present the decoded version together at the same time. Bottom line is the problem is on your end. You might try using Eudora Lite (it's free) and will eliminate the problem. Dave
