Dear Experts
Sometime I need to share some URLs (news , technologies,,,,tec) via gmail account to friends and co-works.
But what happens when they receive emails and click on the links , those links won't reveal the real topics (wrong web site)!!!
Why this happens ? How can we share links via email ?
Thanks

Are you manually typing these links or copy pasting them from somewhere? Additionally are these URL's ones that require a logon to where you cant get to the destination because a roadblock is the logon requirement?

Then they're goin about it the wrong way...
Try a test email...in the Compose window there is a pic of a link...clik it and copy /paste tour link...you can also add your own title to the link

You meant the quote above, as you didn't mention what is the story I tried to clarify it

We don't care about the story, only the link workings. The first story is open to all, the second one is not.

While via emails both links are not functioning,,,,,,,,,,why is that ???

Could be email client used by recipient, or url not correct in email.
