I don't know much about the macro facilities, but I think the problem
is you used the "generic" map. You might want to try binding your key
explicitly to the "index" and/or "pager" maps. ie try something like:
macro index \e1 c{mailandnews.co.uk}
and see what you get. Note there is no <CR>, so you are given an
opportunity to type out the rest of the path.
