Gilbert, I think that there are several issues.
It's important too, to say that this is certainly not unique to Alastair's 
posts.
Firstly a number of different mail clients, and all with different settings, 
of course.
Then line breaks in very long links (not in Alastair's case)
Then link truncation when we don't use the<>
Also whether the link is in a reply or the original message.
In my instance, when replying, my IE7 changes the original links to plain 
text and I need to go and add a return after each to make
it a link once more.
Finally small errors in file names. An extra space is not readily apparent 
until you try to link.
Cheers
Hoppy

I don't get it? I'm reading Alastair's posts in Mail.app on a  
powerbook under OS X 10.4.8 and none of the URLs have been broken,  
even before the 'fixes'. I can see how they've been messed up in the  
quoted replies, but all three of these worked fine in the original,  
as they have ever since I've been back (from a two year hiatus, more  
on that to come).
