Gil,
Since you have entered a "return" (3 times actually), that should do the trick.
However, I've noticed that sometimes mail apps don't auto-link in the compose window, but the recipient will see it as an "active" hyperlink, which can be clicked.
You might give it a test, send to yourself.
If you really want to see it in the compose window, just manually add a "return" at the end of the URL.

set someContent to "From:
" & itsURL & return & return & return & itsText
. . .
I also like to "activate" the citation URL: Select it, then ⌘C, ⌘K, ⌘V and Return. That turns it blue, so that the recipient can click it to view the website directly.
Any ideas how I can "activate the URL" within the script?
