WF Email - URL content not hidden

Fri Jan 26 17:30:37 EST 2007

This may be way too simple... But when you enter the URL links in the
email text... Did you use the change editor and mark them as comment
type?  I believe that worked for us.
Cheers,

An oldie, but still a goodie.

SRM 5.0 - Basis 700.

Sorry, this is not strictly a workflow question.

Jocelyn, my basis folks say that they cannot convert RAW to HTM.  I
said, Jocelyn says that we can.  (That ought to be good enough, right?)

I can see in SCOT > NODES > DISPLAY that the settings for Node SMTP,
Address Type Internet, and Output Format RAW Text only has PCL,  PDF ,
PS, TXT or No Conversion.  I can't argue with Basis, as these appear to
be the only available options.

I must be missing something... A conversion routine, or function
somewhere ?  Extra SCOT config ?
