Guilty as charged...
If your software allows you to extend the RH margin, and send unformatted, then that might work. Some people send like that routinely without even trying (8-)#Forgot? I've never even heard of this to prevent Lookout Excess splitting addresses!You must have been on holiday some while back. There was a very long thread on this very subject!
I think that was when Dilwyn went to his previous job...
True but when the cut is only one character long even Turnpike or The Bat! may have problems...Yep. Outback simply does not recognise this. However even if Outback splits line, my software (and loads of others I expect) are clever enough to reassemble and correctly underline everything.
With more than one it is increasingly possible... I think that Turnpike has enough intelligence built in to check the legality of the address but then again I cannot be sure.
I have even had four line URLs correctly linked.
Without this one has to copy to a text editor and re-assemble.Not everyone and everything is as clever as Marcel (founder member of Marcel Kilgus Software fan-club).(8-)#
