Thanks for your suggestions. Please see my comments inline.

This would not be practicle. In a single email out I sometimes can have
thousands of different URLs because each member receives their own custom
link. So am I right in thinking tinyURL would not help?

Does this actually work?? Even the example you gave does not actually work
because the URL got broken? Sounds good, but as it did not work in my
Outlook Express news reader will it work elsewhere?

Difficult because I have a unique code for each user which also has to
convey a lot of data. Plus the original URL is also quite long to start
with.
Any more suggestions welcome.
Kind regards
