So use a procmail rule to put them in locally.
You can either use my 100 line C program from
<http://www.scientia.demon.co.uk/users/ben/software/mail/>; or Tim
Vanderhoek's 3 line Perl script (which I don't have handy), take your
pick. :-)

I'm not against the links being in the mail by default, but while it's
easy to put them in locally and there are people strongly against it,
I don't see it happening.  Which is a shame, because I'm strongly in
favour of adding them added as well (some people might read mail on
machines where they can't use procmail perhaps, but I doubt you fall
into that category).
