Thanks to George, Chris and Benjamin for your replies. People don't really
have an excuse not to use plain text for the lists, as far as I can tell.

Hi Barry,
HTML, as used on many web pages, is what's called a "Tagged
Language". For example <h1>Heading</h1> would make the word
"Heading" into a visible heading style. Of course you do
not see what's between the < and > signs.
Plain text is just plain text. No bold, changing fonts
size, etc..
To make an e-mail link in plain text, simple put "mailto:";
(without the quotes) immediately before the e-mail address.
With web page links, normally just making sure the "www." is
included in the address is usually sufficient to make it
into a link.
George.

What is the difference between the two, other than stopping
the dreaded equals signs? If I put an email address or web
address in a message in plain text, would it still be a
link?
Thanks
Barry
