I'm used to www.spamassassin.org being turned into a hot link. Thunderbird does
it and I am sure that Outlook Express did that when I used it. That is common
enough behavior that we should expect spammers to use it and people to have an
MUA that does it.

Some experimenting with a test message:

Test www.spamassassin.org spamassassin.org http://spamassassin.org
http:/spamassassin.org http:spamassassin.org http:/www.spamassassin.org
http:www.spamassassin.org

Outlook Express made only www.spamassassin.org and http://spamassassin.org hot.

I think we have to at a minimum accept www.spamassassin.org and the other
prefixes that OE does (which I know include ftp.spamassassin.org).

Thunderbird made all of those hot except "spamassassin.org" turning them all
into valid http:// hrefs.

Both Yahoo! Mail and SquirrelMail, (another web mail interface), are quite
conservative, only making the full valid http:// versions hot.

GMail has interesting behavior. It of course makes http://www.spamassassin.org
and http://spamassassin.org hot. It also does that to both www.spamassassin.org
and spmassassin.org, adding the http:// prefix to the href. It misses the
http:/foo... links but it does make hot http:foo... because it ignores the
"http:" and makes the rest hot.
