Today I received a mail about the public beta release of Coffee Stack Exchange. In the footer I noticed 3 un-evaluated variables:

  1. $SiteNameLong
  2. $SiteName
  3. $BaseWebsiteAddress

The full contents of the footer containing the errors:

Questions? Comments? Let us know on our feedback site. If you no longer want to receive mail from $SiteNameLong, [unsubscribe from all $SiteName emails][7] with a single click.

[8]: $BaseWebsiteAddress

    Confirmed - but note that the variables are substituted correctly in the text/html part, just not in the text/plain part.

  • I am reading the whole message as text/plain. But yes, variables in the text body are substituted correctly.

    It's a multipart email - there's a text part (MIME type text/plain) and a HTML part (MIME type text/html). For some reason, the footer in the HTML part had the substitutions processed properly, while the footer in the plain text part didn't.

A fix just rolled out, though the build rev 1.0.1234.5678 hasn't been incremented. Mysterious...
