How do I make links in my message that say something other than the address?

If you just type in a URL (Universal Resource Locator) to a web site, it will appear in your message and it will work. However, doing it this way will cause the reader to leave the site.

To embed a link in a word or phrase, type the word you want to become the link. For example Yahoo. Then double-click the word, or drag over your phrase to hi-lite it. Then click the Link button above the message editor. In the dialog that opens, type the URL to the site you want.

Here are the two examples:


http://www.yahoo.com

Yahoo.
