Comment:

 That sounds like a problem with your email client.  Trac sends text-only
 mails, it's your email client that converts text to links.  And apparently
 it's doing it wrong.  Here's the email body of this ticket's message:

  As the title says, my confirmation eMail includes the line:

  Ticket URL: <https://trac.torproject.org/projects/tor/ticket/12952>

  The beginning '<' is not underlined and does not propagate to the
 browser.
  The ending '>' is underlined and does propagate to my browser, producing:

  Error: Not Found
  No handler matched request to /ticket/12952>

  Until I looked very carefully, I thought you had deleted my ticket...
