I have a directory on my Windows Info Server that I send in a script using Mail::Sendmail on a Windows 2000 workstation: 
my $mydir = "\\\\myserver\\mydir space\\dir\\"; 

my %mailer = ( To      => $toperson,
                  From    => $fromperson,
                  Subject => "subject here",
                  Message => "$mydir",
                    );
......

The Outlook 2003 mail message cuts off the http url after the space in the outlook mail message. It shows the whole $mydir variable but cuts off the underline http url in the space part of the url \\myserver\\mydir space\\dir\\

Anyway I can correct this to show the whole url like this: \\myserver\\mydir space\\dir\\
