Hi,

I just purchased the "Book of Zope" while at the Linux Expo in New York and I was trying to add a hyperlink within the Zope's sendmail. But all I see in the email is the text if the link. I tried the example but still no luck. Any help would be great, thanks in advance.

Your problem has nothing to do with Zope at all... You'll want to send a HTML-Mail, but you send only a plain-text-mail. You have to options: 1) Be kind to your customers and stay on plain-mail-mode. Insert the hyperlinks as they are: Most email-clients will render them as hypertext automatically ... => http://www.zope.org 2) If you want to insist on sending HTML-Mails (booo..;), add something like: <dtml-sendmail mailhost="MailHost"> To: <dtml-var sender>, From: <dtml-var sender> Content-type: text/html Subject: Corrective Action Report Update <dtml-var capa_report_no> to your mail-header...
