I was wondering the same thing a couple of days ago, but it was about how to do this in my e-mail. Do the same rules/reg whatever you call it still apply?

Not sure - don't use Yahoo, but I doubt it. The html code for linking is this but again most things don't use it other than sites:

Well done! ;D I think most people don't know how to use that feature, but even those that do often can't be bothered. ;D
