Long URLs, tinyurl, and a nice alternative

Hello,

just a quick note. A lot of people in this list use the tinyurl.com
redirection service to make sure, URLs do not get broken up.

Another thing that is helpful, and even less hassle for the sender is
using less-than and greater-than signs to surround the URL. Most if not
all of todays eMail clients do understand that to NOT break the string,
ie.
<http://www.home-control.co.uk/index_products.php?page=product_info.php&cPath=67&products_id=234>
should always look correct in everyones eMail client.

Hope that helps.
