Default Links to EML files

Hello
I need to create a hyperlink to an .eml file so as to view it when the link is followed. The code is:

Response.Write "<a href='\\server\folder\myeml.eml'>eml link</a>"

The problem is that the url automatically produced by this link is:
"mhtml:file://\\server\folder\myeml.eml"
and the file cannot be found.

If I manually type "file:///\\server\folder\myeml.eml" everything works fine.

How can I produce the correct url from my asp code? Any ideas?

Okay
I found this to be a known bug: http://support.microsoft.com/default...b;EN-US;825803

The workaround is unacceptable though. Any ideas?
