   Hi, Some time ago I wondered what is the correct way to include
   url in the message and then I came accross rfc1738 Which suggests
   that they should be written as

       <URL:http://www.imc.org/rfc1738>

I've adapted a hybrid, <http://host.domain/>. It seems many mail agent
authors were unaware of this RFC as well, and as a result, some programs
tend to not like the 'URL:' prefix. But the <> helps identify the total URL
when they extend across one line.
