Someday you will have to explain to me and to everyone else the
significance of that name! ;-)

One way to limit (though not eliminate) the problem of mail or server
clients breaking URLs incorrectly is always to enclose them in angle
brackets ("<" and ">"). There is some protocol somewhere out there on
the Internet that states this is the correct way to delimit URLs. I have
found that *most* (though, of course, not all -- Microsoft Outlook,
anyone?) e-mail clients respect this convention and will keep the URL
together. For instance:
<http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/support/>
... is all on one line, while
<http://www.yellowdoglinux.com/
support/>
... is on two lines. Supposedly, they will *both* be encoded correctly
(let's use this e-mail as a test).
Best wishes,
Clint
