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:

https://example.org/ticket.form.php?id=333?
https://example.org/ticket.form.php?id=333&
https://example.org/TicketID=455#
https://example.org/TicketID=455$

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.
