Relative links in blog posts don't work in emailed notifications

I don't know if this is a bug or just a warning to other users: If you include a relative link in a blog post, that link does not work in the emailed copy of the blog.

Example:

Blog contains < a href="/node/1234" > click here < / a >

It'll work on the groupanizer website, but the email notification will have the same relative link to /node/1234, instead of to http://your-domain.groupanizer.com/node/1234, which obviously won't do.  :)

If you can fix it, please do.  If not, this is a warning to everyone else: Don't do that!  :)

An excellent point Larry. 

An excellent point Larry.  Links in emails (or anywhere off a web site) must have the whole URL included, or when you click on them they will go nowhere!  I learned this (as I have learned so may things) the hard way.  :)
