URLs inside the notification emails are way too long

    The URL in the notifcation email for viewing the posting is very very long, for example a line with 438 (!) characters long.
    It instead should contain only the minimum necessary, not contain other encoded tracking code or whatever it is.

    Rationale: w/o importing the mailfile into the mail client program it's impossible to copy/paste it into the browser, b/c the mailserver program breaks the line into smaller chunks and appends special character(s) to each chunk...
    But when working via a terminal on a remote VPS one does have only the original notification mailfile, ie. just a raw text file, no mail client... So, it's impossible to copy/paste that long URL spanning multiple smaller lines into the browser....
