When I select a link to a newsgroup on a Web page, it does not work
even though the link is valid per RFC 5538. I submitted bug #601618
about this more than five years ago. That bug was just now closed as
WontFix although this is a true software error and not a request for
enhancement.
See <https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=601618>.
It was closed because it's "not a tier one product issue", which seems
to be the case. Both news:// and nntp:// links clicked in Firefox open
the handlers for those protocols; I just checked by clicking the links
in your bug report.
Maybe it needs to be re-opened and reclassified -- ISTM it's not a
"Core, Networking" issue.
When I read this post yesterday, in my Win7 SeaMonkey, I went to
bugzilla and clicked the links for news:// and nntp:// ..... and nothing
happen!! :-(
Tonight, when I started up my Win7 SeaMonkey, I had two new accounts on
my Mail and News screen!! :-(
So Bug still applicable .... at least for SM.
