Users report that email subject links in the /admin/email-logs/received section appear clickable (blue text, hand cursor) but do not function, as some lack an href attribute. Jonathan5 notes the subjects are styled as links but don’t lead anywhere. ToddZ observes the same issue and expects them to display email details like the Rejected list. tobiaseigen suggests they shouldn’t be styled as links unless they have a destination, and has brought this to ux. ToddZ adds that this issue has been addressed in a related thread.
The subjects look like they are links – they are blue and the mouse pointer turns into a hand.
Examples are “Delivery Status Notification (Failure)”, “Email Feedback Report (Complaint)”, “Undeliverable: [Forum name] Topic name”.
I’ve just noticed that ones in the form “Re: [Forum name] Topic name” do work as links.
I see a bit of this too. Everything is in <a> tags, but some have no href.
I don’t have examples like your first batch, but I think I’d expect those to pop up the email details the way the Rejected list does.
I do have a few “Re: [Forum name] Topic name” that don’t link to anything because that topic has been deleted.
At the least, it would be nice if items with no link destination weren’t rendered as links.
I slipped this across to Contribute > UX. I think these should not be styled like links unless there is something for them to link to.
On my personal site, I can see that some of them do link to posts as expected, but most do not even though they are styled as links.
Looks like this has been addressed over here:
