Extended Description

From the llvm/llvm-project#24016 mail, the link in the email is for:

https://urldefense.proofpoint.com/v2/url?u=https-3A__llvm.org_bugs_show-5Fbug.cgi-3Fid-3D23642&d=AwMBaQ&c=8hUWFZcy2Z-Za5rBPlktOQ&r=pF93YEPyB-J_PERP4DUZOJDzFVX5ZQ57vQk33wu0vio&m=Rqd7g7qzrVku_EgkYqAqMPAy9sMnr7sQNDSvoJ7DIk0&s=nTW8CjYoUKPXYGQMp02vQhy8rpVeVLZs6jAd8o69fC8&e=

The expected link is

https://llvm.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=23642

Going through old emails, the change from llvm.org URL to the proofpoint.com URL happens 2 days ago, on May 20. Also, the URL redirector only appears to affect HTML emails. Plain text emails on other lists are not affected.

No longer an issue with the mailing list move.

Looking fine now, thanks a lot for the hard work. :)

It's in the works.

I have pinged the UIUC folks and was told it's working its way through security folks over there. So unfortately no fix yet.

Perhaps it's time for the Foundation to move the mailing lists away from UIUC. If this was a decision made by someone whose job description includes the word 'security' then I have very little faith in their infrastructure.

I only just noticed this. It seems very strange to start forwarding links through any external service, who will do $DEITY-knows-what with it?

Furthermore, the proofpoint service is agonizingly slow, making clicking links in Bugzilla emails painful. Until this gets fixed, I will unfortunately have to turn off HTML emails from Bugzilla.

Can this please be fixed soon?

davidchisnall commented 9 years ago

Please can all links be excluded from this system? It is an incredibly stupid idea and causes mailing list emails to be lost as spam (emails that have some other URL are almost always phishing scams, so spam filters rightly catch them). Even if spam filters start accepting them, I really don't want the LLVM lists to be training my spam filter that phishing scams are not spam.

I've been working with UIUC and we are investigating if llvm.org URLs can be excluded from their new system.
