enclosing links that way does work with standards-compliant email
systems, but it depends on everything that handles the message being
compliant, which is often not the case
i'm using Thunderbird 3, and if i send myself a plain text email with
Content-Type: format=flowed with Cotty's exact URL, the link survives
the imposed line breaks; so assuming the list software isn't breaking
things, it should come through fine here:
<http://www.swsracing.net/sitebuildercontent/sitebuilderpictures/dsc_0327.1.jpg>
however Cotty's emails don't have format=flowed set, and in such cases
Thunderbird (and probably some other email clients) breaks the URL,
failing to comply with the standard (this is a Thunderbird bug, not an
error by Cotty)
just to point out how variable things are, despite the fact you are
using Thunderbird 2.0, which normally sets proper In-Reply-To headers,
somehow every reply you make omits such headers and thus fails to thread
properly (again, no blame here, though there may be a setting at your
end involved)
