In Claws you just need a single click.

To discover the problem, start Claws from a terminal with
`claws-mail --debug` and look at the debug output when you click a
link. Paste the output in a reply to this message if you're unsure
what it's telling you.

BTW, the above is relating to a plain text message, (such as this
one), rather than an HTML part of a message using the Fancy plugin.
