# Hyperlink Example

Spammers often include links in their messages as a way to get you to visit a website. An HTML link in a message looks like the following:

<a href=”http://www.ipswitch.com/sla/index”>

This may or may not be accompanied by a tag calling an image or graphic. You should be careful when selecting this feature to filter on. Many legitimate HTML e-mail messages contain links in them, and as such would be identified as spam.
