[CHROME] HTTPS Everywhere causes email address foo@gmail.com to be redirected to foo@mail.google.com incorrectly
Today I received an email that I wanted to opt out of (unsubscribe from). The URL given to opt out (in the footer) is:
http://careers.stackoverflow.com/email/optout/myemailaddress@gmail.com/CpEzg
The Chrome extension causes this URL to be redirected to:
http://careers.stackoverflow.com/email/optout/myemailaddress@mail.google.com/CpEzg
...where obviously the token given at the end of the URL doesn't match my email address, so the unsubscribe functionality is broken.
I've verified this is caused by the HTTPS Everywhere extension - disabling the extension causes the link to not be redirected. Nothing is displayed in the console, and the original GET is displayed as Pending in the Chrome network inspector.
Chrome extension version: 2012.5.1
Many thanks,
Alex
