![]() When you compose your message in Plain Text and type the link, the link will remain intact as it is based on what it written in text and there is nothing going on “behind the text”. This trick however does not work in Outlook 2003 with Word set as your e-mail editor as it even converts typed links into UNC paths. To have it turn into a link automatically use the following format įor this method you’ll have to be aware of spaces in the filename and place the link between if necessary or you’ll end up with a broken hyperlink. Instead of using Insert-> Hyperlink to link a specific word such as “click here to open the document” you can type the link instead. Sadly, there is no direct solution for this issue but there are a couple of workarounds Type the link Is there a way to configure Outlook that the drive path reference to the mapped network share is kept and that it won’t be converted to a UNC path? Our Human Resource department for instance does this in bulk and sends out a standardized email to all of the users at once with the H:\-drive reference. This is causing us some issues as we often place personal report files on the user’s home drive and then send them an email with a link to notify them of this. ![]() In the above example the H:\-drive is the user’s home drive and the UNC path now points to the home location of the sender instead of the receiver. When inserting a link to a file on a mapped network share, the link is automatically converted to a UNC path.
