[MlMt] hover over link to view it?

Huh -- I'm on 5757 and I'm not seeing it, and haven't for ages. I'm 
talking not about links where the URL is explicitly shown in the message 
text, as in Guillaume's message, but about encoded text links, such as 
in daily news summaries from newspapers: the text says "More Things Are 
Terrible, Say Sources" and clicking it will take me to an article on the 
paper's website. Encoded links like those show no popup URLs for me; 
hovering over them does nothing.

I restart MailMate at least daily, and I just tried turning my VPN off 
and restarting MM again, in case that was the problem (even though I had 
already set MM to bypass the VPN, because it causes SMTP problems in 
sending mail). No joy. Is there something else that could be blocking 
this? I can't see anything in the preferences...
