I used to think this a good idea, but I send a lot of download URLs for eBooks I sell, and since URLs in emails get underlined an underscore disappears in the line. This is fine if the recipient just click on it, but too many copy (by retyping not 'copy and paste') the URL, and put a space instead of _ . They then email me and tell me that the download URL does not work and I have to waste time explaining why.
