10.6: Windows-style file paths are clickable in Mail

If you're using Mail and you receive a email messages that contain a Windows-style UNC path (\\server\name\share), you can just click on it and Mail will convert it to something the Finder understands, i.e. smb://server/name/share

[robg adds: This only seems to work in 10.6; what is a clickable link in Mail on my 10.6 system just shows up as text in Mail on my 10.5 system.]
