This holds true for just about anything that uses the GURL apple event 
(the one that causes URL and mail addresses to do something when clicked 
in another application). The other trick that usually works is to simply 
highlight the item before clicking it.

It is a highly recommended trick to surround URLs in emails with them as 
well... that way line breaks that are jammed into them during the 
emailing process won't cause the URL to break. The mac will simply 
process everything between the chevrons as a single entity (and since 
URLs inherently don't allow for line breaks, they are either stripped 
out, or ignored, thus restoring the URL to a usable state).


This trick also works for much of the Windows world. Although a few web 
mail systems will take anything encased in a chevron and try to turn it 
into HTML and ignore it when it fails. But I consider this to be a broken 
action on the part of the web mail systems, so I've never worried myself 
about it (why cause 99% of the world to jump thru hoops, just so the 1% 
can not have to complain to their ISP to fix the broken web mail system).
