issue on Grails Mail 1.0 Plugin

I am currently using Grails Mail 1.0 plugin in my project. I used it to send verification link to registrant's email address. Unfortunately, the sent verification link is not clickable on some webmail services like hotmail and yahoo mail. I have also encountered same problem with other web browsers like mozilla and google chrome. Is this really a bug on the said plugin? Please help!

Almost certainly not. I use the same plugin to send HTML emails and they render fine in Yahoo mail.

In general, you shouldn't rely on links in HTML email being rendered correctly, because some email programs may be configured to only read emails in plain text format. Also, the rendering of HTML content varies wildly from one email program to another.

For these reasons, you should generally provide a plain-text fallback, e.g.

To register, click here. If you're using a rubbish email program, you won't be able to click the link, so copy-paste the following link into your browser's address bar: http://www.example.org
