This may be simple, but I can't seem to wrap my head around it - I would like to "disable" hyperlinks, so that it still views the links with html (bold, underline), but you can't actually click on a link.

Background: Our IT disabled incoming links by inserting a "noclick" within the URLs, so our customer's have been attempting to click and then get sent to nowhere. I don't want to use the 'plaintext' route, as I still want to Bold, underline, and italicize areas in the notification.
