Bug Description

In the following bug email:

<blockquote>

Répondre à: Bug 29290 <email address hidden>
À: <email address hidden>
Sujet: [Bug 29290] OOPS-21D227 received while trying to target a bug
Date: Sun, 22 Jan 2006 03:57:45 -0000 (sam, 22:57 EST)

*** This bug has been marked a duplicate of bug 5757 ***
</blockquote>

The least interesting of the two pieces of information has become clickable. When I receive an email like this, I'd like to click on the the duplicate bug to confirm that it is, in fact, a duplicate. I realiase that having the URL in that text could be confusing. Perhaps the HTML version of the email could have a clickable link?

Tks,
Jeff Bailey

Agreed that it would be more useful to easily get to the dup target from that email.

Though I just started pondering Malone sending out HTML email a few minutes before hitting this bug report, I imagine there are no short-term plans to make that happen.
