You could use `goto-address':

    goto-address is an interactive compiled Lisp function in `goto-addr'.
    (goto-address)

    Sets up goto-address functionality in the current buffer.
    Allows user to use mouse/keyboard command to click to go to a URL
    or to send e-mail.
    By default, goto-address binds to mouse-2 and C-c RET.

    Also fontifies the buffer appropriately (see `goto-address-fontify-p' and
    `goto-address-highlight-p' for more information).
