Summary: backslashes get stripped out of bug emails Project: Savannah Administration Submitted by: ehood Submitted on: Mon 03 Jan 2011 11:33:18 AM CST Category: Trackers (bugs, support, tasks...) Priority: 5 - Normal Severity: 3 - Normal Status: None Assigned to: None Originator Email: e...@earlhood.com Operating System: None Open/Closed: Open Discussion Lock: Any _______________________________________________________ Details: If a backslash is used in a comment for a bug item, the email that is sent out when the update happens has the backslash removed. For example see the following comment: https://savannah.nongnu.org/bugs/?18112#comment5 Relevant snippet from comment: ((?:cid:)?|(?:(?:http://(?:www\.)?)?mail-archive\.com/)?)($mhonarc::AddrExp) However, the email sent out removed the backslashes. Relevant snippet from email notification: ((?:cid:)?|(?:(?:http://(?:www.)?)?mail-archive.com/)?)($mhonarc::AddrExp) All the backslash characters are missing. For comments that can contain code snippets (or windows pathnames), this is a problem if one does not know to go to the web site directly to see the unmodified text. Seems if the backslashes are getting rendered correctly on the web site, they should be rendered in any email that goes out. _______________________________________________________ Reply to this item at: <http://savannah.gnu.org/support/?107565> _______________________________________________ Message sent via/by Savannah http://savannah.gnu.org/
