Tony,
    Not sure how your ISP is setup, but yes, you could always copy and paste
the URL in to the E-mail, and then whoever wants to view it can. If you have
HTML capabilities such as AOL, you could always put in a line from that. For
example: (I will try this in lower case so that it shows the source code. Not
sure if it will work.)

<a href=www.whateverwebsiteyouwanttopost.com>And then this is where you put
your message.

You can copy and paste the URL into the line after href=. This is the command
to make a link. For example: (Hopefully the above worked, otherwise this will
look silly)

<A HREF=www.Vanagon.com>Vanagon mailing list

html commands should be in all caps. Hope this helps.
