Another computer question

How come when I put a link in an email, it shows up in black letters and has to be copied and pasted in order for the recipient to find it? When I receive emails with links they are blue and I can just click on them. I use Firefox and Hotmail with Windows Vista Home edition in a Dell.
I'm not going to buy a new computer or new operating system so don't suggest it.
 

When you use hotmail, look at the top of the page and find the little globe looking thing with the chains coming out of either side. Click on that icon, and it will open a box for you to paste the link into. That link will then become a "clickable" link in the email you send.
 
I don't know how it is with your computer operating system, browser, and settings but what used to make a difference for me was using the full URL.

That means you also use the http://

If you aren't just copy and pasting you might try adding it. Otherwise I expect it is just a mails setting issue.
 
It depends on how you set up your email preferences. You can send, and receive in plain text, . . . or . . . HTML. HTLM will show colored and active links and plain text will not.

Easily changed. Just to to "tools", "options", "send" and then pick what you want in "mail sendind format."
