Hi!

I've been using Boost Note for a while, and I noticed that I cannot open any links contained in the emails. This happens because the site you're using for your redirects is blocked by the Firefox version of uBlock Origin (1.26.2). The issue does not seem to exist on Chromium, but this may only happen because currently the Chrome web store has a little bit older version of this extension.

This is not a bug, but this extension is extremely popular, and it can clearly cause an issue for people trying to follow those links. To improve customer experience, I suggest you look into it.

I apologize for reporting it on GitHub - this repository is clearly made for the Boost Note client itself - but this is the only interface I found to reach out to you.

Current behavior

Clicking any link in a Boost Note email results in a blank page.

Expected behavior

The link should be following the redirect.

Steps to reproduce

Install Firefox on desktop
Install the uBlock Origin extension
Click on a link in a Boostnote email with a redirect link that points to something like https://cffaadf.r.bh.d.sendibt3.com/....

Environment

Firefox browser

Thanks for opening this issue! Let's see if we can narrow down the problem and find a solution.

The link you provided does indeed go nowhere. I'm not sure which email list this originates from, and whether something can be changed within the settings of that email list.

@Rokt33r most likely knows more about this.

Interesting. AFAIK, we're using https://www.sendinblue.com to send emails. So our option could be letting sendinblue to fix the problem or switching to other email services. I'll ask my team to contact sendinblue.
