How to "stamp" out underlined links



Hi Judith:

You can set your preferences/options in most mail apps so that embedded links (like the e-mail addresses below) show up in a color that you select, but without the annoying underline that obscures the underscore character used to indicate a space in the address. It will end up looking like this:
***
...and it will still be an active link -- that is, assuming that the recipients' preferences are set to use the colors and formatting specified by your message. Some folx override all other settings and force all messages to use their own preferred settings. Different strokes...

I dunno where that setting is in MS Outlook Express (or if it even exists), but I'll send you a separate message off-list with a screen shot of the applicable Preferences window in Netscape/Mozilla. I'm posting the tip here in case it's of use to anyone else.

My sister Donna Rosen has asked me to announce that she is making some of our father's extensive stamp collection available for sale. She inherited the collection when our father died in 1998 and finds that her financial situation warrants the sale of some of these stamps and or/collections. This offer has not been made on the open market yet and is therefore made exclusively first to those who have expressed an interest in Robert Rosen's life and work.
 
Our father collected stamps from all over the world for most of his life, and put together an extremely rare and comprehensive collection that was valued in 1985 (the last time it was assessed) at $25,000 to $50,000 per book, of which there are a goodly number. Donna is willing to sell individual stamps from the collection or groups of stamps, and is willing to entertain other offers regarding them (such as only stamps from one country, perhaps, or only stamps from certain time periods in history, etc.). The stamps are professionally mounted and perfectly preserved in the same condition in which our father received them because he was very well aware of the procedure for proper collection and maintainence. Many are in mint condition. Others are important for the cancellation stamp they bear, etc.
 
Anyone interested should email her at either *** or
(note; there is an underscore (like this _ ) inserted between first and last names in those email addresses. The way my email program is underlining them obscures that fact but you must type the underscore in if you aren't using the link here.)
 
Respectfully,
Judith Rosen
