Janet, that is a function of your mail client. You are using a
fairly old version of Eudora (Windows Eudora Pro Version 2.1.2),
which could actually pre-date the wide use of the Web, and therefore
may not have this feature. The current version is 4.2, and you can
get more information at:

http://www.eudora.com/

If you don't want to spend any money, there is also a free version
called Eudora Light. Another excellent free mail client is Pegasus,
which can be found at:

http://www.pegasus.usa.com/

And of course you probably have some other free clients on your
computer right now, since both Netscape and Internet Explorer come
with free mail clients.

Any current mail client that is even half-way decent will have a
"clickable links" feature the will generally highlight a link in a
different color and let you click on it and launch your browser.
Some of them require that you put in the whole URL, including the
http:// part, before they can recognize that it is a link.
