Creating wiki link to resource identified by ‘mid’ (message identifiation) URI scheme is impossible

[n-roeser@…]

I tried to put a link to an email message – identified by its Message-ID – inside a Trac wiki text in a Trac 0.11.5 installation. That did not work. Trac seems not to support the ‘​mid’ ​scheme.

This is an example of what I tried to do:

[mid:1234567890.abcdef@mail.trac.example sample message]

As that did not work, I attempted to work around the issue by using the following:

{{{
#!html
<a class="ext-link" href="mid:1234567890.abcdef@mail.trac.example"><span class="icon">&nbsp;</span>sample message</a>
}}}

That did not work as well: Trac silently removed the href attribute from the HTML a element.

For both of the two methods explained above, I expected Trac to include the following in the generated markup:

<a class="ext-link" href="mid:1234567890.abcdef@mail.trac.example"><span class="icon">&nbsp;</span>sample message</a>

Assuming links like <a href="mid:1234567890.abcdef@mail.trac.example" > ... are meaningful to you, they can be allowed by creating an InterMapTxt entry which goes like that:

mid  mid:
