Email docs come saying, "for more information, click here,' or 'click here for more information.', but the 'click here' is not highlighed. in any way, and nothing happens when clicked- either on 'click' or on 'here' or if I highlight both and click that.

WHY? How do I get to the information contained behind the 'click here' notification? I use @earthlink.net

Will appreciate how to use this.
