Defect #35309
open
Hyperlinks ending in "$" will be truncated (the trailing "$" sign will not be part of the URL to be pointed to)
Description
Hyperlinks ending in "$" will be truncated (the trailing "$" sign will not be part of the URL to be loaded).
e.g.:
https://this.is.a.example/withtrailing$ (hover over the URL and look what is shown in the browser status line, resp. you see the "$" is not contained in redmine's URL).
Our Mail-URL-Scanner replaces incoming URLs with redirects to the scanner. The generated new URL contains a trailing "$", so the URLs are no more recognized by the scanner and do not work.

Same with ?, &, # and $ characters. These URL:

will be rendered (3.4.4.stable) as:
For example the second link could be generated by glpi tool and the third one is sometimes generated by otrs tool. I think all four are valid characters at the end of an URL.
