Automatic formatting (Outlook XP)

Topic

New Reply

For some reason, Yahoo mail likes to strip the URL’s from my Email messages that I send to my brother. I’d like to configure my Outlook to stop automatically formatting the url I type in or paste into a “hot link” which gets stripped by Yahoo.

Can someone help me find where I can turn off automatic formatting so I don’t have to delete “www.” part in order to force the URL into a regular text instead of a link?

Thanks.

If this is in HTML format, you can remove the link (not sure how to prevent it) using Insert>Remove Hyperlink, with your insertion point in the link. Hassle…
