Hi

I would like to report a bug where K9 makes hyperlinks not working correctly:

See below link inside a notification email I got from Catawiki (the link in their E-mail being presented as a clickable image btw):

http://email.catawiki.nl/wf/click?upn=7XttcVXaKqWQmcQ5AOg0VOxXZ7xYtzHds-2FMITPrbq794lSaIju0bhm-2FCbbB-2B6USesIX9VSu8BV-2BSsY7-2BQdZUkZmPaSPNNCAINgZNFZSFOVk65mMaUCCjwqVVUZy68iJR3D2eGfZSB1Ikjjvbc7FkWgIS0oxIPvGKPpXAA-2Bmq7L5FAtHouyrT5aWQfEKy-2BgO3aUJqv69qE3o7LsPDHJATZTrAsvMdXEBrKT582U4LPrR7KtJUHUxcNH76P-2Bx8qG5W0jSXi7ukOEjUDsYqGpXflMLM0qE4r5PttI6lNrz-2F-2B5b7q1PLB6eJKOvbjtaMNTLYYWL3g-2BA3WxG8ImxvydGc0n6d1Q0fPWV2Bjyb-2BRQZL53xtvPWQ-2BXEkPaDHNsHPo-2FsOUU9cnaLaVbB6Dciy3X-2F7so0Si2ZiFMAUg9MyyBjQLAl2ZXpF-2BCae68Z278IIqaWJKu1E1vE68yvve0Iv79e-2BA-3D-3D_GD8kYyUJclD9t3hyO7QnHiYhMCp0UuGEhsS-2FThXwjKH92pbSb-2Bpra25dK1-2BkgrlEfbzqAXns1GK3NP3Z3iwOXLes-2F4j4m14A1B917GygZq1CaUW1yYOmccTLnkvOKaWlZLCJznQv1Tl-2BmQyL0L4hE0tb5EE94L6E3xPbZ-2F6zJKWE-2BPgpAbFLe6-2BxJ39m4w2-2Bd3O85-2Fp41vvoOJgHd39BbS8PtKxtaapRHzy9feEC0X2axEAaldL7eftIvZ2KFhn4NKHVj-2FhvXixDojwPfgg3YH2SJ0gxSVAqKzO5XHZ24ge6Bxri91FO1-2B1yxopDBUzB9uzdrNvR6tTwsqkZSyyAmfS6kSzmcIB-2BLPU4bRPdTpLpJfpHHtrL2b1Sw4b2h-2B9PAIf5m-2BMjxDlNJDyF7EzcDeDBeoEA0yRbyTxwZocalfVZ0YWL-2Bo-2BrYYUB5CvmE4ilR8yqu9wjHBc8ZwfDPplgjGFZe-2FzW15X4zCjo3QmUzZfB6KE9j7hA-2FZzNsvLnurHf

Activating the above from within K9 mail, it will falsely bring you to catawiki's main page
When copy-pasting this same link into a browser window, it will however bring you the intended sub page of Catawiki with specific search results

It is like K9 does not respect some or all of the hyperlink's arguments that follow behind the '?' sign in the link

Did anyone run into similar issues?

erik

That is one insane link URL. I'm not too surprised your browser isn't accepting it.

That said it works fine for me with Chrome and 5.400

thanks Philip, yes I was thinking the same thing :) yet at Catawiki they obviously feel all this data is needed to bring one to the intended page

Hi David

also thanks for your input
Reading all the results, it starts to look like
an issue between k9 and my specific browser Samsung internet
