You didn't specify which version of Bugzilla you're using.

It doesn't really matter though, because there isn't any officially supported
version of Bugzilla for Win32.

The problem you're experiencing has to do with incorrect MIME encoding. "3D" is
hex for '=', and Windmail is probably encoding the URL as MIME, but without the
MIME headers, so it gets recorded in the email as "=3D" instead of =. You'll
note the rest of the bug number is still there.

The Win32 installation instructions
(http://www.bugzilla.org/docs216/html/win32.html) suggest using NTsendmail
(although they note windmail may work; it's obviously not). Using NTsendmail may
fix your problem.

When bug 84876 lands, that will also fix your problem, but you'll have to
upgrade to the 2.17 branch (probably 2.17.5) to use it, or wait until 2.18 comes
out.

Thanks!

But the document doesn't descripe how to use ntsendmail clearly.
When I use ntsendmail,it doesn't work!!
I am not sure I can replace sendmail with ntsendmail correctly.
if using windmail, modification is more simple,so I use windmail.

My bugzilla version is 2.17.4 
Only modification: replace of sendmail, and  "#!perl" for every 
*.pm,*.cgi.....file head.


Another problem:
Email can not show chinese correctly.
