Every time I click on ‘view this thread’ I get this warning on my iPad!

Forum foundry apparently uses sendgrid when sending emails, likely to have their own data on who clicks on them, how useful it is, etc.

Outlook has a habit of viewing sendgrid links as spam/phishing unless they actively know it isn't. I'm not too sure the official reasoning, but logically it makes sense that clicking on a link that then gathers data might be an issue. The link itself (at least in this case) is safe, it's something that @John G or @dascrow may have to look into further.

For what it's worth, I just tested with gmail, and did not get any alert about the link being unsafe.

It’s obviously a ruse to defeat a King of the Hill.
