[Bug 691366] Re: registration link broken

 

The problem is related to quoted-printable encoding and word-wrapping.

The original Omar's email looks like:

<code>
--b1_1fb8dd3dce9725e7da9355d0016e0c9e
Content-Type: text/html; charset = "UTF-8"
Content-Transfer-Encoding: quoted-printable

For some strange reason, Outlook Express does not handle encoded new
line properly and that equal sign in the middle of URL above looks in
the message body like that:

  When a new user registers and receives the confirmation email, the link may be broken when viewed with gmail or other mail clients.  Hotmail works fine.
