Email notification format changed: No more clickable links

Apparently since today, something changed in the format of the email notifications about new posts to subscribed topics.

Before it was plain text, so my email client displays it with a fixed width font and parses it for linkable URLs.

Now it is HTML, so my email client displays it with a variable width font. But it trusts the text to contain HTML links if there is an URL to be clicked. Which it does not, it is just plain text disguised as HTML content type.

Sorry, that was me trying out a new smtp-relay. We've 'only' got 2000 free at the one I've been using and since we're up to +3000/month nowadays I have to use more than one relay. I'll bear that HTML-misshap in mind now thou and won't use that one again.
