"Links" to me implies that this is an HTML email. In that case, just 
parse the body with an HTML parser (e.g. nokogiri). It can easily pull 
out all the A (anchor) tags with their href attributes.

If it's plain text, but contains URLs like http://..., then you can 
match the body against a regexp. e.g.

   p body.scan(%r{\bhttps?://\S+})
