The URL's <U>are</U> :-) clickable, but if someone copies a link from an
HTML page or message, it becomes unlinked plain text.  To make matters
worse, the 80-character line limit breaks many long URL's, necessitating
either the sender using www.tinyurl.com or the recipient copying of the
long, multi-lined URL piece-meal into a browser in order to go to the linked
page.

I'm writing this from a Secure Shell client that uses pine. All plain
text - the URLs are clickable, though - but it doesn't matter as the
received HTML messages are displayed as text. The default config
option, I presume.

Browsing messages is *much* swifter than in an HTML application.
Writing messages is not as much fun.
