Question

I do this several times a week: I craft a nice HTML post with certain comments being links to supporting documentation and the email is plain text. The receivers see the email and immediately have questions: Is that assertion really true?

So it'd be nice if the email went from this:

You need to use the transmog widget to mogrify the gazoinkick. Otherwise you'll get corrupt data.

to this:

You need to use the transmog widget to mogrify the gazoinkick. Otherwise you'll get corrupt data.

Note: the above message contains links when viewed in the interface.

Answer 1

Often, the email client of the sender is what determines the plaintext display. If we can parse the HTML email, then we should just show it. Otherwise, if we can't parse it, we can't tell if there are links in it. :(
