the <> doesn't always work, but most of the time.
If you use tinyurl simply also write the long url, if tinyurl fails one
can still find it. Also, many people prefer to read where a url leads
before going there.

If you are as lazy as i am use opera to read your mail. There you can
highlight text (even multiple lines) and right click, then selecting go to
url, no matter if it is recognized correctly as URL, or not, or if only
part of it is. That takes care of all URLs for me.
