I use Outlook 2010 and the length of a link makes no difference. What will make a difference is if the link is split.

So if what I have to say doesn't apply, then please ignore it. I was having trouble with hyperlinks in my email. I am using Outlook 10. With some of the hyperlinks that I would get in my email , email from AFB, for example, when I would click on the link it would take me to a page that would say something like, sorry that link was broken. Or something like that anyway. But the thing is that that kept happening but not to all of the email links that I would receive in my email. So I call Microsoft because one of the emails that they sent me wouldn't work. After some investigating, the tech found that the problem was that email links were too long and Outlook 10 couldn't handle emails of that length. If I would get an Outlook version that was not so old the email links would work. I found that If I forwarded my emails to my outlook dot com account and open them in the Mail app all worked . So I suppose that I will have to update my Outlook 10 to a newer release. So, like I said, this might not be what you have been talking about. But if something like this is happening to others, this is the answer. Get a later version of Outlook. Good fourth of July to all of you. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Adrian Spratt Sent: Monday, July 03, 2017 12:55 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Need To Re-enable Hyperlinks In Outlook E-mail Nathaniel and Tom, Checking my notes, I'll give what I believe will enable HTML format. Note, however, that although I went through these steps, I can't confirm they worked. I already have HTML set for my messages, and JAWS/Outlook didn't give me any kind of confirmation. Note also that these notes refer to Outlook 2010. They may or may not apply in Outlook 2016. In a new, reply or forwarding message, press alt-o, then t, then h. If this doesn't work, Tom, please repost. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Nathaniel Kile Sent: Monday, July 03, 2017 1:30 PM To: jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com Subject: Re: [JAWS-Users] Need To Re-enable Hyperlinks In Outlook E-mail You may have changed your email from HTML view to text only. I don't remember the area to check this at the moment, but if somebody doesn't look it up I will check. -----Original Message----- From: JAWS-Users-List [mailto:jaws-users-list-boun...@jaws-users.com] On Behalf Of Tom Behler Sent: Monday, July 3, 2017 9:18 AM To: 'Jaws users list' <jaws-users-list@jaws-users.com> Subject: [JAWS-Users] Need To Re-enable Hyperlinks In Outlook E-mail Hello, everyone. For some reason, I have recently lost the ability to directly access links in an e-mail, and have also lost the ability to create huyperlinks in e-mails I send out. Regarding the creation of hyperlinks in e-mails I send out, I used to be able to do this by simply hitting the enter key at the end of the involved link. Does anyone know how I can enable the huyperlink function in Outlook e-mail? I'm using Office 365, Outlook 2016, and Windows 7 here with Jaws 18.
