Maybe it was an upgrade to OE, then, that fixed you 'n me, but not
Victor. Or maybe something like OEQuoteFix set badly, not to disparage
that one. But big URLs should work, even if big girls don't cry!

I don't know and don't care. While it *can* be the settings on the sender's
end, it is usually a combination of sender/reader that causes the problem. I
put the onus on the reader to patch the thing back together if it gets
broken, not on the sender to figure out some foolproof method of preventing
it (don't think there *is* such an animal.)

That said, a seasoned veteran poster will use TinyURL or the like to shorten
the URL to an "unbreakable" length if it's called for, preferably
*in_addition* to the full URL so that readers can see for themselves what
the target URL really is.

I won't disagree with that. The sender should take moderate care,
though, to get it right.

I might have gone there, but mine seem to post well. HMMM, look below...
