Teensy Weensy criticism about the forum

[UK_Widowmaker]

Am really liking this forum..it's really good.

 

I have one slight issue (which may not be an issue, merely something I am not doing)

 

I use Outlook 2003 for my emails (need it for work) and when a notification comes in...the thread addy is just in text format (as opposed to a hyperlink)

 

One thing I did like about SOH was this hyperlink, as when you have a lot of replies, it makes it easy to just click the link, and go straight to the topic it refers to....rather than copy and paste it into the browser.

 

Is this not an option?

Not for Outlook users

 

Just kidding.

I've never seem to have an issue with this using Outlook Express.... May be an Outlook 2003 setting? All email that I'm aware of goes out in HTML. I know that there is a setting on this forum where you can turn ON/OFF the notifications, but when notified, the URL should be there as a link.

Yeah..it's weird!

 

The only 'clickable' link I had, was a link to the WW1 forum...but not the link to the post!

Are your emails all coming in Plain Text format??

 

does it make a difference not using Word as the email editor in o2003??

good point, I will check that out.

But it's just strange that a link arrived on the same email notification......

well, on closer examination...the other emails I get (which show up as blue clickable hyperlinks) have www. on them

 

replies from this forum don't... just http:\\ forum

 

could there be something there perhaps?
