hyperlink to a "local url"

[Kees Broekhuizen]

Hello, We are using Groupwise 5.5.
Is it possible to make a message in which you place a hyperlink referring to
a document stored on the local fileserver? When I type in a message e.g.
www.google.com then the hyperlink is made automatically, but when I type
\\servername\volumename\directory\filename of driveletter\directory\filename
or http://driveletter\directory\filename I get a message: "file not found"
or "you are not allowed to visit the page".
Has anyone a suggestion for me? Thanks, Kees

Wont work with editing.

I experimented with variants, and found you could cajole HTML to work but
the Text version rarely will.
