Description Swen Kruiper 2011-12-12 14:13:16 UTC 
When i enable $wgEnotifUseRealName the emails mediawiki creates should contain a realname instead of a username. That seems to be correct except for one thing

Take the link below that is present in most of the emails created by Mediawiki

http://localhost/wiki/Special:EmailUser/Skr

"Skr" being the username.

The problem is that when $wgEnotifUseRealName is enabled, the Skr would be replaced with the realname in the link in the email. This effectively breaks the link as the mediawiki installation does not recognize the realname.

Was a bug in 1.17 and is still a bug in 1.18
