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.
