260844 - Forwarding text-only RSS message should include URL

Status: VERIFIED FIXED

(MailNews Core :: Feed Reader, enhancement)

Description

[Ben]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.0; rv:1.7.3) Gecko/20040913 Firefox/0.10
Build Identifier: version 0.8 (20040913)

When forwarding a text-only RSS message, either in-line or as attachment, the
article URL (shown as «Website» )is not included in the forwarded message. In my
opinion it should.

Furthermore, the URL cannot be copied from the message's header, because it
*always* opens the link in my favourite browser (Firefox). I have to open the
source code (ctrl+U) and select it from there.

Not sure whether to set it as a bug or as an enhancement. Feel free to adapt.

Reproducible: Always

Setting this as an RFE and confirming on all platforms.

Comment 2

would this be easy to implement for 1.0?

Works in Thunderbird 1.0 RC1.

Perhaps I am missing a setting somewhere, but it appears this feature is now missing.

As an example, if I try to forward an item from this RSS feed the composed email does not include the URL from the Website field: http://www.theregister.co.uk/headlines.atom
