If I send an email containing a host name, the Mac mail programs
inserts an http link after it. How cam I prevent this? And indeed,
any other modifications to what I type?
For example, if I type
Please ssh to test.example.org.
it changes the text to
Please ssh to test.example.org <http://test.example.org/>.
It also displays the hostname itself as an http link, which it isn't.

http is a safe assumption, since that almost always is what it would be.
try adding in the protocol, i.e., <ssh://test.example.org>, which also
makes it clickable.
also look at preferences/composing and tick/untick the options for
plain/rich text and autocorrect.

This must be the exciting AI future we hear about. The system changes
your text to what it almost always would be.

I'm sending someone a list of instructions. I want the text to be
exactly what they should type, in the correct order. I certainly
don't want one bit of it to be a link that will attempt to connect
them there and then.

I had plain text selected anyway.
It appears that setting "Check spelling" to "Never" disables it.
Unlike normal spelling correction, it changes your message without
showing you, which is just wrong.

doesn't it blink when it changes?
Either set the email to be plain text,
or you can highlight the linked text and right-click, go to link
options and then remove link.

It doesn't show the added http link in the message when you compose
it. It highlights the hostname as a link, but doesn't give any
indication that it has added an http copy of it. You only see that
when the message is delivered.

Just to be clear, here is a screenshot of (part of) the composing window:
