Hi,
Just discovered MSE and I liked some pages so much I wanted to cut and paste the URLs to friends using Outlook. However the URLs end with a comma, and Outlook fails to include this final comma as part of the hyperlink, with the result that people think they've received an email with a dud link -- and never get to see the great advice
Would it be possible to ensure that page URLs don't end with a comma, for example by adding a dummy final character?

If you type "Click Here", then highlight those words click on the hyper link button in outlook. A dialog box will open allowing you to paste the full URL associating it with the highlighted words.0
