This is why I emphasised Real Simple HTML Code. I toop have had experience
sending HTML emails and the problems that can cause. But what could be simpler
than <pre>Your text goes here....<a href="link">Look.A Link!</a>...</pre>.

Perhaps the solution is a multipart message:

Part 1: text/plain

Part 2: text/html
