Mailmerge: Links go PURPLE when they SHOULD NOT

P

Philippe

I design an email in WORD
I save it in either RTF or HTM
I mailmerge the document to Outlook Contacts
In the text body, email addresses stay BLUE (as they
should), but hyperlinks to websites turn PURPLE.
I must be stupid, but I don't understand why.

Can anyone answer?

Thx

Purple is the color for the Followed Hyperlink style. If you've been to this
Web site, then the URL is cached on your machine and Word and Outlook know
that you've been there. If you send the document to someone else who hasn't
yet visited the site, the links may well be blue.
