Just type it in. Unfortunately Netscape doesn't show you the link in
your outgoing message but the recipient will see it if their software
handles links. To test, send yourself a message and you will see that
the links are there.
http:// as in http://name-of-web-site
news: as in news:name-of-newsgroup
@ sign as in userID@domain-name for an email address
[posted and emailed]
Hope this helps,

Hi, Barbara,
For Email, should use.....
mailto:use...@domain.com for a link to email....... @ sign by itself
doesn't show up as a link....

You're right. Netscape doesn't recognize just the @ sign as a link.
I'm using Agent, which does. Sorry about that.
