It might be possible, but I don't know how difficult it would be. The way a sighted person would usually see the underlying link is to hover the mouse over it. You would need something to perform that function and then to announce the link by checking the part of the screen where it appears and I don't know if it always appears in the same part.

I was hoping that perhaps an add-on or keystroke might be available that, when the keystroke was pressed, the URL would appear in such a way as to allow the arrow keys to be used to validate its legitimacy and Escape would close the dialog. This would eliminate copying it to the clipboard, switching to a different window, pasting it and then reading it and then closing that window and returning to the message.

If you are on the link and open the context menu, if your e-mail program has this feature, you will see something like copy shortcut or copy link location, the wording will vary. Press enter and the underlying link will be copied to the clipboard.

Thanks, Jonathan
