Thank you for reporting this problem. However this always works fine for me. But I think we have different environments. Does being logged in versus not logged in change this in any way? When I am logged in the page always redirects to the https version of the page. When not logged in it simply works with the http version of the page. I just now tested a few combinations and I didn't see problems either way. > If I change the URL to use an HTTPS URL: > > https://savannah.gnu.org/bugs/?11111 > > then it works fine.

Or else there is something wrong on your side of the browser that isn't a problem for other people. :-) :-) But that doesn't mean that there isn't actually a problem. I tested using Firefox and Chromium. What browser are you using? Do you have a plugin that might be affecting things such as BetterPrivacy or something similar? Can you test some other combinations on other systems and see if it might be a plugin? In principle I think it would be a good idea to change that link in the email to the https version anyway. Bob
