I use links' "Save Formatted Document" feature to generate the postings. I'd
rather not have [1], [2] etc. references throughout the plain-text newsletter,
since if you're wanting to go to URLs you'll be better of using the web version
anyway.

(The reason I include a plain-text version is so people can read the newsletter
without the inconvenience of leaving their email or usenet client.

I may add a note to the top of each posting that points out the link more
clearly. It's too easy to miss at the moment.)
