Hyperlinks Corrupted

When I send mail from Windows Live Desktop and the message includes a
hyperlink the person receiving the message frequently receives a link that
will not work. Not always but about 50% of the time. The link appears to have
extra stuff added to it by Livemail.
This is very frustrating.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.
thanks

Re: Hyperlinks Corrupted

Can you post an example of a link as you sent it and as it arrived?
Otherwise it's difficult to say what's happening. Is it all recipients that
are having the problem?

Re: Hyperlinks Corrupted

I typed www.christian-housesitters.com and that is what showed as a hyperlink
in the email. However when the other party tried to open the link it failed.
We checked and it is trying to open

Re: Hyperlinks Corrupted

No it is IMAP

Just to clarify the hyperlink looks correct in the message received but when
clicked it will not open as it tries to add all that stuff before the address

Re: Hyperlinks Corrupted

Post the code from one of the sent messages.
If the code is correct in your sent message, then something is happening in
transit or at the receiver's end.

Re: Hyperlinks Corrupted

Addition to my previous answer.
I just looked at my messages and under encoding it shows as Western European
ISO Should this be changed?
