Dealing with long URLs in e-mail....
When you copy and paste a URL that has been split up into more than one
line, you sometimes have to paste it and then remove the spaces that
get copied. Two things that can make this easier:
1) Reply to the e-mail, and edit the URL so that it's on one line, then
copy and paste that into your web browser. Then Discard the reply mail.
2) Copy and Paste each line of the URL individually
3) Some Web browsers know how to handle this situation. Perhaps try a
different web browser, or browser version
4) Some e-mail clients know how to handle this situation. Perhaps try a
different e-mail program, or version
5) Go to the URL below which is a pointer to the same place.
