Lukas Theussl commented on MPIR-401:
------------------------------------
This is still broken IMO. The 'specification' you link above is just a
reference, the documentation for [Maven
Model|https://maven.apache.org/ref/3.6.3/maven-model/maven.html#class_mailingList]
explicitly states that all three: subscribe, unsubscribe and post, can be an
email address *or* link, and that {{mailto:}} is *only* added if the url is an
email address. This used to work in the past.
My use case: SourceForge does not provide a direct email address for
subscribe/unsubscribe, only a web interface.

> Key: MPIR-401
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPIR-401
> Project: Maven Project Info Reports Plugin
> Issue Type: Improvement
> Components: mailing-lists
> Affects Versions: 3.1.2
> Reporter: Joshua
> Priority: Major
>
> This is related to the fix done in
> https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MPIR-398
> We were using the mailing list a little different that what was expected.
> So for us we don't have a mailing list, but we do have yammer and we were
> using the subscribe and unsubscribe links to subscribe and unsubscribe to our
> yammer group. We use the yammer group as a mailing list.
> When we took 3.1.2 it broke our links because now they have a mailto: before
> the link.
> Curious if it would be possible to enhance this code to detect if the value
> in the unsubscribe and subscribe is an email address or a URL. If it is an
> email address then add the mailto: other wise don't.
