A new user reported that he couldn't activate his account with the links embedded in the "thank you for registering" email (apparently he figured it out anyway, but still, when I view source on the email, the URL is blank):
<br>You can login to the forums by clicking <a href=3D"" rel=3D"nofollow" =
target=3D"_blank">this link</a>.<br><br>To activate this account, you must =
first click <a href=3D"" rel=3D"nofollow" target=3D"_blank">this link</a>.=
I'm getting "3D" before all the quotation marks, too.
My email reader is Thunderbird 24.0.1
