Mail links are redirected to verification page

Vote:
 

When the email is constructed the links are rewritten to a URL with gomail.aspx with the actual URL written as part of the query string

Clicking on this link then redirects off to checklink.aspx - a link verification page alerting the user that this could be a potentially malicious link. The user can then click through to the actual site

 

We need the link to verify automatically and not redirect off to check link. The user should be taken through to the site.

 

Any ideas of how to acheive this.

 

Thank you

The verification tries to validate the URL automatically by comparing the link to what was in the original mailing. If it for some reason encounters a problem it will display the link check.

You can bypass the link check by editing the Gomail.aspx file in your site and set SkipLinkValidation="true" in the @Page directive.

Thanks for your reply Mangus. That seems like it would work.

I actually go around it by editing the CheckLink.aspx page and adding the following code 

<script runat="server">
   protected void Page_Load(object sender, EventArgs e)
   {
       if (Request.QueryString["url"] != null)
       {
           Response.Redirect(Request.QueryString["url"], true);
       }
   }
</script>

Your solution looks cleaner to me though

 

Thanks
