Tokenized URL in Email

I've read a number of tokenizing articles but couldn't find the answer to this question. I'd like to tokenize the URL for links within emails but have the flexibility of showing different link text. I therefore don't want to tokenize the link text and the URL - I only want to tokenize the URL. How do I do this?

<a href="{{token here}}">your text here</a>

You can use a lead, account or my (program) token.

Great - thanks. It would be nice if a token selector was an user-preference option provided for the URL field in the V1 email editor.

Hi Hank,

in fact, if it is in an email and you want the clicks to be tracked in the link, make it:

<a href="http:://{{token here}}">your text</a>

and strip the "" from the token value.
