Relative URL

Using WYSIWYG editor (tinyMCE), the urls refering to the local documents are cut into relative url. It is no problem on the web, but when sent as an email, these urls do not refer correctly to the web site. solution:

file: components/com_letterman/letterman.php, after line 620 add:

<base href=\"$mosConfig_live_site\">

file: administrator / components / com_letterman / admin.letterman.php, after line 451, add the same.
