Truncated Email Addresses #issue


 

A member reports that email addresses (name@somewhere) are being truncated (name@s....) when posted to the group.? He says he enters them correctly but when posted they're gone.... Not sure if this is a groups.io problem or something off on his end.


 

On your group, go to Admin > Settings and scroll down to the Privacy section.? The last item there is "Hide Email Addresses In Archives".? If you change that to "Do not mask email addresses in the archives." and save the changes, the email addresses should show up.? There's a glitch, that I've reported to support, where they're still fig-leafed in a plain text only group for some reason.

This behavior will also occur if he's posting them by email and subsequently viewing them online without logging in. Not having people's email address viewable by just anyone who shows up is a very desirable system feature for spam avoidance.

My group is set to "Normalize HTML Emails" and "Do not mask email addresses", yet, email addresses in posts are truncated, which is annoying.
The only way to have them displayed is to put a space before and after the @ symbol.

Is there a way to sort this?

I just tested this and I think there's a small bug. Mark evidently forgot to unmask email addresses in the message previews. They ARE unmasked in the actual message archive. You could report it to [email protected]. The bug has nothing to do with normalizing HTML. It's just that he forgot to unmask the address in the message preview.

The strange thing is:
if I read posts via mail, links are correctly displayed.
If I read posts online they are truncated (not just in preview, I mean the actual message).

Didn't happen in the test I ran. I think you have the wrong setting checked for "mask email addresses in the archive."

This would be consistent with a setting of "mask all email addresses in the web archive." Could you check that setting again?
