title: Mobile Safari/ iPhone Mail.app HTML design issues: prevent autolinking and styling auto-links (dates, addresses, etc.)
body: <p>i am trying to design an HTML e-mail that should also look good when it is read on mobile devices. My biggest problems are with the iPhone (iOS 4): its mostly undocumented "auto linking" feature really bugs me.</p>
  
  <p>Autolinking seems to appear on</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>phone numbers (this is the only documented feature, as <a href="http://www.darowski.com/tracesofinspiration/2009/03/31/stop-iphone-from-incorrectly-auto-linking-phone-numbers/" rel="noreferrer">explained here</a>)</li>
  <li>addresses</li>
  <li>dates</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Is there any documentation out there on how to </p>
  
  <ol>
  <li>disable auto linking for dates and addresses</li>
  <li>"correct" the autolinking via microformats or something similar (so the results are better than they actually are with iOS 4)</li>
  </ol>
  
  <p>Any information, hints, or clues are really appreciated because there does not seem to be any information out there whatsoever.</p>
