Hi All,
There are two issues here, which I’m sorry I wasn’t sufficiently clear on:

1. There is pasting a text string that begins with “http://“. For me, this indeed turns in to a full-fledged link automatically. I think this is the sort of thing that Sam is talking about.

2. There is pasting a text string that doesn’t start with http://“, but that is a hyperlink. ([Like this](https://www.google.com/?client=safari)). Cutting and pasting this sort of thing doesn’t yield a hyperlink for me, it just yields the text “Like this”).

The second one is what I’m curious about. Right now, I think I do something like Zak, which is to construct the appropriate markdown-formatted link. (I have an Alfred workflow that makes it very easy, I just wondered if there are other ideas out there. Happy to share the workflow w/ anyone interested).

In my hands I don’t get a hyperlink in MS Word until I press Space once. In Mailmate, with Markup set to Markdown, for whatever reason I get an hyperlink right away. As it always behaved that way, I never investigated why. Sorry not to be of more help.

How’d you manage that? I’d love to have that behavior.

When pasting into Microsoft Word, I get a hyperlink, so I know the data makes it to the pasteboard. But pasting into a MailMate composer (with Markup set to Markdown) gives me plain text.

I’m using MailMate 5902 on macOS 12.5. I tried selecting and copying the “More information…” link from https://urldefense.com/v3/__https://example.com__;!!JFdNOqOXpB6UZW0!sCxfbYZxEDywmsLp3Bk43bNJvq2tb-ye_0KN8TKnNklPLjIjcb_nu7NmskDJRDN_Z0N_ggDxxAR-YC0u074z9y1HdX8$ using both Firefox and Safari. Used ⌘C to copy from the browsers and ⌘V to paste to MailMate.

Thanks for any advice you can provide.
