Confirmed, it seems the open-in-tab (right click, or 'open in new tab') is going to have to map to; http://mail-archives.apache.org/mod_mbox/subversion-dev/201001.mbox/%[email protected]%3e As you pointed out in the next message, the ajax link is worthless. > To see the problem, you have to right-click to open the message in a new > tab.

In fact, defaulting to the link I pointed out, and then overriding that link with the ajax/ context on left-click (open in current context) would make so much more sense! Drives me nuts that copying links has never worked. FYI the mod_mbox discussion is on [email protected], so I've redirected your inquiry there :) Bill
