Title: email: don't escape email subject and addresses
Component: Notifications
Level: 1
Class: Bug fix
Version: 1.7.0i1
Since version 1.5.0p14 the subject and addresses of HTML emails
were escaped, i.e. the characters '<', '>' and
'&'
were replaced by '&lt;', '&gt;' and
'&amp;',
if present. This resulted in a slightly more unreadable subject
if any of these characters were present and if an email address
contained an ampersand it would result in an invalid (escaped)
email address.
