Links not working

Post by Dixon Butz »

Getting a lot of email from Slickdeals.net that the links don't work. Not all the letters are blue and it errors.
Any idea of a fix?

Are you viewing the message in plain, rich or html? Check under the 'view' menu. If available, try one of the other methods (plain or html) and let me know the result of that, too.

My default is HTML.
I can't change anything with these:

Ok here's the situation...

There appears to be a limit of 512 characters that can be detected in the URL. This is probably a limitation of the development environment that PPv5 uses; I tested it in the (likely) PPv6 environment and the full URL is detected (I successfully tested a URL over 1024 characters). I scanned one of the URLs in your screenshot and it was just a little over 512 (530-something).

So -- I can't do anything about it in v5, but it should be fixed in v6.
