All "<" and ">" in old and new messages are shown as "<" and ">" in message views _however_ they are shown correctly in overview abstracts e.g. at //server/mm3/hyperkitty/list/testlist@server/latest

I don't think I've ever seen this. Certainly it is not the case on this list with either current messages such as those in this thread <https://lists.mailman3.org/archives/list/mailman-users@mailman3.org/thread/4...>

I tried to dig deeper and realized that on my test list "<" and ">" are only mangled when they surround email addresses as e.g. in

<user@example.net> (ie. < user @ example . net >)

I see that lists.mailman3.org renders such addresses as e.g.

<a target="_blank" href="mailto:user@example.net">user@example.net</a>

whereas my Hyperkitty shows them as

<user(a)example.nett>

But I have not yet found the responsible code or setting since it seems this is related to the option to obscure addresses.

Or is my Hyperkitty 1.3.4 simply too old?

The function that handles it is escapeemaillinks() in templatetags/hk_generic.py (at line 111 in my version).

Adding .replace("&","&") to the return value fixes the rendering of email addresses (at least for me).

escapeemaillinks(text) searches text for strings like

<a href="mailto:user@example.com>xxx</a>

and replaces them with

user(a)example.com

thus replacing everything from <a href= through </a> with just the email address with @ replaced by (a)

However, text is the whole message body, so what you are doing is just replacing & with & in the message body, but only when escapeemaillinks(text) is invoked.

Also, this is all changed in HyperKitty 1.3.5 with the addition of optional markdown rendering.
