This is going to depends on:
- Your email program
- Your text/html setting for Yahoo! Groups
For instance, I'm set to Text in Yahoo, and Outlook makes mine links
already.
I did put an HTML tag into the email for you. See if it helps, I guess.

Yes and no -- the message sent to the lbna-announce list doesn't include
the http:// , so some email programs won't convert the URLs to links.
In Eudora, for instance, links are converted if they start with www., even
without the http://, but a URL like members.tripod.com/ isn't converted to
a link.
If the links started with http://, they would probably be handled better.

Ahhh, I was set for HTML. I changed it last night and was hoping to
come home today and see that it worked. But now I am not getting box
announcements at all. I know there should be at least one
announcement from today because I entered a new box this morning and
checked the "announce" box. I just went back to look at my group
settings and it says individual e-mails. Is the announce feature not
working or did I somehow screw up my group account by making the
change?

Either way, the list isn't getting the new announcement posts either.
View the website talklist and see that over the last few days it
worked, though without state listings (which can be fixed), and we can
see that for a few days/hours, the postings worked. Now, nothing-both
e-mail and web server.
Just an observation,
