    so im making a new site and spending time checking layouts ect

    when a user joins, i want them to confirm email to stop spammers and today i signed up as my self and i made the email as html with the following

    You (or someone else) has just registered an account on %site_title%.

    Clicking on the link below will activate the account:

    %url%

    You can then complete the sign up process.

    Regards

    %site_title%

    Now how the message turned out in my inbox is

    Dear test test,
    You (or someone else) has just registered an account on (sitename).

    Clicking on the link below will activate the account:

    http://membership.sitename/signup?em=rLXldGqbzGxo38EYxsah

    You can then complete the sign up process.

    Regards

    The best regards is part of your email setup in: Configuration > Email Layouts

    I've found that if I change the formatting to HTML and add the link like this (in the source code view), it becomes an active, clickable link:
    <a href="%url%">%url</a>
