 Actually this is about the bug tracking system on
 http://developer.pidgin.im

 Each time a message is posted, the bug tracking system sends an email to
 the people related to the bug. In the message body, an URL is included
 which points to the home page and another one which points to the page of
 the bug in question.

 However, the message being plain text and the URL being enclosed by <>
 determines at least some email clients not to recognize that text as URL.

 Here's an example
 {{{
 Ticket URL: <http://developer.pidgin.im/ticket/1428#comment:2>
 Pidgin <http://pidgin.im>
 }}}

 Consequently, I have to select the text represented by the URL, paste it
 into a browser window's location bar and press ENTER, instead of a simple
 and single click.
