Use a shorter link.

Enclose the URL within angle brackets

Depends on your mail client, but you probably need to turn off automatic line folding/wrapping or whatever it calls it.
You could also try prefixing it with URL: and enclosing in angle brackets which is proper RFC way of specifying URLs, e.g.
and that might even work if it gets broken in the middle (not checked the RFC to see if thats supposed to work), but let's deliberately break it here, and people can report if it appears as a single clickable URL...
Or you can use

You do of course get the occasional paranoid, who wont click on redirect links, in case they send you to

If you actually visit tinyurl you will read:
Welcome to TinyURL!?
Are you sick of posting URLs in emails only to have it break when sent causing the recipient to have to cut and paste it back together? Then you've come to the right place. By entering in a URL in the text field below, we will create a tiny URL that will not break in email postings and never expires. ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
And if you ask it to tinify a uri it's already done it appears to give you the number it's already thought of (IYSWIM).
With a modern browser you can install a little javascript to your toolbar (from tiny's home page) which will automatically tinify the uri of any page you are looking at.
And if you don't like tiny (though I can't conceive why) there's also snipurl.com and makeashorterlink.com.

Have you watched where the redirects take your browser after you have clicked on a tinyurl. It ain't straight to the site you go via one if not more data harvesting sites first.
Works fine. Cheers, Andrew. Been wondering about that for a while but didn't expect the answer on here
IIRC you can configure tinyurl.com at its website so it will tell you what site you're about to be redirected to, before it sends you there.

What are the actual implications of that?

That's what I was looking for. Many thanks to you and anyone else who replied.
I dont really like the tinyurl solution as it could be hiding a url you dont want to go to.
Ever tried random tiny URL's?

What do these do that is so harmful?
