Grimoire Entry: Default to Plain Links in Mac Mail

by Jonathan A. Handler, MD, FACEP, FAMIA

Wow, I do not like the “link preview” function of Mac Mail, but it’s “on” by default and I could not turn it off using anything in the user interface. Many sites tell you how to convert a “rich link” to a plain link, but not how to turn off this behavior entirely.

This solution from James Howard to add a plist file totally worked for me:

Thanks James!
