Long URLs in text emails

Can anyone please let me know that how can I handle very long URLs in a text email? I'm writting a bulk email program in VB.Net which sends text emails. The problem is when I've a very long URL it is wrapped by my email client and the result is an unusable link

Is there anyway in which I can make sure that the whole URL is treated as a link even if it is wrapped to more than one lines

TIA

Try setting the message format to MIME with no encoding.

Hi all, I am using a background image via a stylsheet. I've used this code: background-image:url("/images/tile.gif"); (which I think is correct) The image doesn't show up however, the path, the filename etc etc, everything checks out ok.

Hey folks, Is anyone aware of any sort of asp coding to deal with long URLs? I have a few asp that pull URLs from fields within a MS db, which then display on a width-limited table. Is there any way to wrap these long URLs such that my table doesn't get widened? e.g. wrapping at "/" or something similar? Thanks for any advice, Dave

Hi folks. Can you help with some questions? I gather that some types supported by g++ are nonstandard but have been proposed as standards. Are the long long and unsigned long long types still under consideration for the ANSI C and C++ standards? Are they likely to be accepted into the standards? Which compilers support those types, and which do not?

Encountered a URL containing a comma the other day -- the first time I've ever noticed that, so far as I can recall. It worked fine, however, and I gather commas are legal in URLs. Out of curiosity, did a quick scan of an ASCII file of the 542 URLs in my personal bookmark file and discovered exactly 3 that contained commas (two with a single comma, one with three commas) -- so I guess they're pretty rarely used, even if legal. Seems...

Hi All, In my program I am loading the content of a text file (main.txt) into a string called 'message'. What I need is to convert all urls and emails in this string into html. This is what I did to convert hard returns to <br>'s and it works fine: Dim sws As New IO.StreamWriter(pathtosave)

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...

Let's talk about the concept of autonomous AI software engineers and no-code agents. These AIs are designed to manage the entire lifecycle of a software development project—planning, coding, testing, and deployment—without human intervention. Imagine an AI that can take a project description, break it down, write the code, debug it, and then launch it, all on its own.... Now, this would greatly impact the work of software developers.
