/edited emails, address and phone# from public view

Well, that unwanted link is what TB sent, so there must have been an error in copying and pasting the URL into the message. TB doesn't, on its own, make such a switch. Solving this would require seeing the exact keystrokes that went into creating the message. Somehow, that URL was possibly embedded into your browser when you created the link - and that's just a guess. It would be difficult to resolve this, although I fully understand your concern on the wrong URL.

The email to which I replied, had been sent through Substack. That is probably the issue. I didn't yet have her gmail email. I'm relatively new to Thunderbird and the way it handles URLs is cumbersome. And this was an important email. Very frustrating to look like a scammer to someone I'm trying to pitch.

What is cumbersome about drag and drop or copy and paste? Please explain what is cumbersome.

I have issues with the insert link dialog box as it is just icky. But rarely do people actually use it as they just copy and paste or drag their links.

For 25 years I used a program that automatically created the link if you had the URL properly formatted. Cumbersome is relative.

Cumbersome is relative.

Yes it is and I am asking for your reason why you think it is so. But hey, if you would not like to see change to make it less so don't tell me and I will not include it in things I may advocate for.

In my previous email I wrote, "For 25 years I used a program that automatically created the link if you had the URL properly formatted."

I send and receive 100s of emails each day. And I use a lot of links. Every time I have to cut and paste a link, it's a few seconds lost, a few precious seconds I could be writing.

To someone else, those seconds may seem like nothing. To me they are a waste, especially coming from a program where links were created automatically. That's why I said "cumbersome is relative." It is relative to the user's needs.

Also, do you have an answer to the original question in this thread?

In my previous email I wrote, "For 25 years I used a program that automatically created the link if you had the URL properly formatted."

Have you tried typing say https://Thunderbird.net into an email and sending it? Or saving it to draft? Both things trigger the conversion of text to links process. Unlike some mail clients Thunderbird defers the conversion till after editing is complete so there is no need to know some arcane keystroke to correct a simple typo. Thunderbird does not guess, only converting expressly identified hyperlinks. So this.is not linked in Thunderbird but is on this forum and in some mail clients because it looks like a link.

Also, do you have an answer to the original question in this thread?

You have supplied a reply email from an Iphone [X-Mailer: iPhone Mail (19F77)] in plain text format. There is nothing in the posted text or headers to indicate Thunderbird has at any time been involved with the email.

Based on your other interactions it appears you may have initially "emailed" your subscribers from a site called substack. I know nothing of this particular provider of marketing tools, but as they offer all sorts of analytics I would guess they routinely replace URL's and redirect them.

When following the link in your posted RL_G3GrBQgw-cMilv1HB7tpBNdgCosh_HzenSnN8mjeDofO619M_G9evysd2CvLSAtookgcJICdl= lAVrYLw54ClGNUcgrSQORuZVje0ZWw_4O-KexcOTmdQyEyBBtI4Co4NgFkca3QRWi80_ej_aoO8D= fF8pqYf2Yi58_lWM4thb_0nkb7PWykxaVI-h1sRj40Q5lEu85pC2j_FD9_Ngf-yEoXXR_9-51tF-= wcUvATmVNac3GXxRBQ email it certainly redirects to a web site https://nitasweeney.com./v for which I receive connection errors as the site does not have a valid SSL/TLS encryption certificate for https://nitasweeney.com./ instead offering one for mail.stats.ph112.peopleshostshared.com, stats.ph112.peopleshostshared.com, www.stats.ph112.peopleshostshared.com

Making a connection directly via typing nitasweeney.com works as expected.

So do I have an answer? I guess I do. Your choice of host both for your subscriber posts and your web site are a problem it would appear. They use redirections and they just don't work well together. Although the redirection to a non existed sub page may be a typo in the original mail I do not have access to.

Not a Thunderbird issue is my answer.
