I'm trying to insert a link in an e-mail using Thunderbird, but I do not see the menu "insert."

G ' Day!

I use Thunderbird 31.7.0 with Windows 8. I tried Googling instructions, but all I could find was asked to use a 'Insert' menu that my efforts did not discover. How can I put the text in a link?

Thanks for your time.

I think you can be composing in plain text mode, where the Insert option is not available or appropriate. Plain text messages can support decorations. Photos should be sent as attachments.

Hold the SHIFT key when you click Write or reply, the message should open in HTML view and you will have the additional menu options and a toolbar formatting.

The choice of HTML as the default dialing mode can be selected in the account settings for the account, the title of the Composition & addressing.

However, in plain text mode, you can just type (or better, copy and paste) URL and e-mail addresses, and in the vast majority of cases, the recipient's e-mail client will make these links.

Note that whether you use HTML view or plain text when composing, Thunderbird do not offer you active links in the Composition window. If you want to see the link as it will appear to your recipient, you must save the message as a draft, and view it in the drafts folder or send a copy to yourself.
