Yesterday, while testing a new newsletter, I noticed that the (tracking) links are no longer opened in a browser window.
Seems to be blocked by eM Client
I’m now on version 10.4.5647.0.
Until 10.4.5626.0, everything works perfectly (i still have the older version on a laptop).
The problem started with version 10.4.5642.0
Cross-check, everything also works perfectly in Outlook.
I’m on 10.4.5642 (the most recent update for my Mac) and it stopped opening all links in e-mails. I haven’t opened a support ticket yet –- I’m trying to work out what else is affected first.
Try closing eM Client and then “setting a different browser as the default” in your OS for a test. Then reopen eM Client and see if that makes any difference to rule out if its your current browser,
Ok suggest you then on that newsletter email go to “Menu / File / Export” and save as (.eml) message on your desktop or documents and lodge that on a support ticket to be investigated to check the source code of that newsletter.
No, but in the meantime I thought I might have worked out a possible cause. I went through e-mails I’d saved and tested links. Some worked (Amazon, for example) but others didn’t, although I could open the URLs if I copied and pasted them into my browser. The URLs all appeared to be connected to tracking services. I thought I’d solved it and allowed tracking on those e-mails, expecting the links to open, but it didn’t change the behaviour. So I’m not sure it’s the reason, but I let Support know, sent them some examples, and said to close my ticket. I haven’t had a response to that. But I do know these were all senders whose links weren’t a problem in the recent past.
I didn’t check whether they were all using the same service, which could have indicated something had changed at that end. But it did correspond with the update, as you said.
No, I haven’t had a response but remember I did close the ticket. Still the same issue – I have to paste the link into my browser. You might want to raise a request yourself, though, because your log file might show some error mine didn’t.
I’m now wondering whether to install the new update I got a prompt for yesterday…
