You can't insert a hyperlink. Example a word that is hot. You can use a
script. See this page for links and how to use HTML with Entourage.

To create a URL in a message: Enclose the URL with < and > viz:
<http://www.entourage.mvps.org/> so that if the URL wraps over more than one
line, it will still work when it gets there. Don't forget to format with the
http:// prefix.

Links won't show blue when composing. Save as draft and you can see they are
blue.

If clicking on a URL doesn't work, then Command-click the URL to open it in
your default browser.

Use a handy script to insert a web URL into an Entourage message.
