the mail reader seems to mistake anything with an at-sign (@) inside quotation
marks (") as an email address. for example, i was reading some mail with a small
inline XPM image. the following lines were drawn "blue and underlined" and were
clickable as mailto: links.
".+@#$%. .%$#@+.",
"++@#$%. .%$#@++",
"@@@#$%. .%$#@@@",
"@@@#$%. .%$#@@@",
"++@#$%. .%$#@++",
".+@#$%. .%$#@+."};
obviously it would be hard to catch _all_ strings like this that aren't real
email addresses. perhaps if there is more than one @ in the string, it is not
tagged as a link? or perhaps if there are no alphanumeric characters?
Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. view mail with the example strings.
Actual Results: see the text highlighted as a clicable mailto: url
Expected Results: display as regular text
this is likely not really a bug for the "Mail and News" team, but i couldn't
find a better category.
