Oops. I selected Send too soon. On the other hand, the <> delimiters should not be used when composing a message on a Web page (e.g., Web mail) as those are also delimiters for HTML. Alternative delimiters include [] and "". Note that bracketed URIs were properly handled by Eudora some 20 years ago. Any application or service that fails to handle them today is very, very wrong. See <ftp://ftp.rfc-editor.org/in-notes/rfc3986.txt>. -- David E. Ross I am sticking with SeaMonkey 2.26.1 until saved passwords can be used when autocomplete=off.
