Styled Text -> Hyperlinks possible?

Hi!
I have added some web-links in my "styled text" formatted mail, but they will not show up as clickable links when sending test mails i.e. to recipients with Outlook. Do hyperlinks only work in html mails?
Greetings

To add an hyperlink in a styled text message, first write the text, select it and then select the 'Message > Link To URL' menu, then write or paste the URL.

Another way is to use the Hyperlink Manager, 'Edit > Insert Hyperlink'. You can then maintain a list of hyperlinks and reuse them when needed.
 
I've tried it both ways and neither way gives me a clickable hyperlink in the sent email...any idea as to why this might be happening? It's incredibly frustrating when you're trying to get people to respond. Oddly apparently the Unsubscribe link works perfectly...but that's it...
 
When I responded to you I tried first with my copy of MaxBulk Mailer. I tried both ways and I got a clickable URL each time. Is your URL starting with http://?
 
Yes, I'm trying with the http:// in front and still not working...

I attempted to hyperlink text with the 'link to URL' function but still not working
 
Weird... so, just write it by hand then. You can do it this way:
Code: 
<a href="URL_HERE">Text</a>
 
That way doesn't seem to work either. Here is a copy of the link I tried <a href="https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/2121574098/the-mirror-method-documentary">the mirror method documentary</a>
 
Works for me. I open MaxBulk Mailer 8.5.1, I paste your code, set the message format to 'Styled Text' and switch to the Preview panel. The link is there, is clickable and bring me to the right place when clicking on it.

Have you installed MLM at some point? If so, is the MLM URL a valid URL? You can check that in the MaxBulk Mailer preferences, second panel.
