SSR> You had zero problems, I had 100% problems until JT posted a working link.

SSR> You see, there are published standards for listing URLs in text documents
SSR> like mail messages.  URLs are terminated with an end of line character.
SSR> What that ammounts to is that this is the URL:

SSR> http://www.matsushita.co.jp/corp/news/official.data/data.dir/jn010315-1/jn01

SSR> Which is nonexistant.  Technically, the URL must be bracketed with `<URL:'
and `>>' to help prevent wrapping from being a problem, like this:

SSR> 
<URL:http://www.matsushita.co.jp/corp/news/official.data/data.dir/jn010315-1/jn010315-1-1.jpg>

I  would  like  to know the standard you are referring to, since in my
book, you have to enclose the URL in brackets, <>, without any "URL:",
so that the link in question would look like this:

<http://www.matsushita.co.jp/corp/news/official.data/data.dir/jn010315-1/jn010315-1-1.jpg>
