Does anyone know why Hyperlinks created in the Mac version do not ‘read’ on a PC? Is this a ‘fixable’ problem or a Microsoft ‘stitchup’? I’ve been sending these hyperlinks to clients for some time assuming that they will work on a PC, and have now found the embarrassing truth! They do NOT.
If anyone can help I’d appreciate it.

It's a bug with Outlook Windows, I believe, that hyperlinks don't display in HTML. (They usually send each their messages in a proprietary RTF format which displays text formatting but isn't HTML. an the links are OK there.) So if you want to be sure the links display, send your messages in plain text, not HTML. This has nothing to do with Entourage, it's Outlook's bug. I think your HTML hyperlinks will display just fine to Windows recipients who are using Eudora rather than Outlook. I don't know if it will help, but try enclosing your links in < > brackets, and see if that makes any difference. (I don't think it will).
