From OneNote Help:



"OneNote automatically creates a hyperlink whenever you type or paste an

Internet or World Wide Web URL into your notes."



Why wouldn't it do the same when I type or paste an email address?  Is there

something I'm missing?  Or do I have to create the hyperlink manually every

time I type an email address?  I don't use Outlook, maybe the answer has

something to do with the Outlook syncing capability? Clicking on a maually

created email hyperlink does open a blank compose window in thunderbird

though...



It seems like such a no-brainer for the program to automatically create an

email hyperlink as well, I'm sure I must be missing something!



Thanks,

Joanna

Hi, Joanna.



This works if you type the email address with a "mailto:" in front of

it.  For isntance:



mailto:jconradpace@discussions.microsoft.com



Should create an email in your default mail program address to this

address.  At least it does for me.

Great, thanks!  I was using mailto in the add hyperlink box, it never

occurred to me to put in on the page.  Works like a charm!



Thanks,

Joanna
