I have been researching and testing different methods for maintaining anchor links within an HTML newsletter sent via Microsoft Outlook. Anchor links allow a Web user to 'jump' to specified 'anchors' within the same document.

The best method for maintaining anchor links is the following:

1) Create the newsletter as a Web page.

2) Copy and paste the newsletter from a browser window to an Microsoft Outlook message window.

3) View the properties of the link (menu bar > Insert > Hyperlink...)

4) Manually remove all of the link address before the '#' symbol (NOTE: this must be done for each anchor link in the newsletter).

5) Click the "OK" button.
