A common request from our user base is to have email alerts sent to them. We
do this from BPA, Sharepoint, in house dev, etc. Many times the email that we
are sending contains a file path pointing to documents or folders containing
documents that need visibility. The problem then ensues.
Emails, sent/received using Exchange, with file paths containing a space in
them will have broken hyperlinks. This is not a major issue but it looks
unprofessional and is quite annoying.
Fix:
Encapsulate the path in quotation marks "" to keep the entire path one unit.
I show an example of this below.
The first path will not properly keep the hyperlink to the folder "No Quotes". It will stop at \No and cut off the Quotes\ portion of the file path.
\\server1\No Quotes\
The second path will properly keep the hyperlink to the folder "Yes Quotes".
"\\server1\Yes Quotes\"
