Linkify Outlook message URLs

ionitor says:
I have a button in Outlook to generate URLs for the selected messages, created from instructions at http://mutable.net/blog/archive/2006/09/02/how_to_hyperlink_to_microsoft_outlook_messages.aspx. It makes links like:
Outlook:000000005C82E9F2052A7348BB94E610636EBE31840E2A00
I would like to be able to put that link in a note or the URL box and use it. In the URL box, http:// is added at the beginning, rendering the resulting link unusable, while pasting it into a note results in a non-link. Could this be added?

When others have been frustrated by this previously, a common suggested workaround is to use a TinyURL or similar service to turn your URL into an http link that RTM will use. Hope that helps.

This idea is considered similar to "Support different protocols in the URL field (e.g. smb:// and message://)", and all votes have been transferred to that idea.
