Quit Mail.app, launch Safari, go to Safari > Preferences > General > Default web browser. Is the version of Safari currently installed on your machine set there? If no, choose it from the pop-up menu. If yes, choose Select… from the pop-up menu, navigate to Safari, and select it again. Close Preferences, for good measure quit Safari, then try again in Mail. What happens?

Same problem here. I selected Safari 6.0, my current version. Mail still doesn't open links. I also tried selecting Chrome. Problem persists. When I copy/paste the link it has "blocked" inscribed at the beginning of the URL like this:


blockedhttp://www...


So I copy/paste into address bar and erase the "blocked" part and then I can go the address. How can I get Mail to stop blocking the links?
