> it very probably affects Balsa and Geary at least
I've just tested, and both fail the link preconnect test but neither fail the dns prefetch test.
So the original bug I posted is on the Evolution Mail side, not the Webkit side. If you go back and look at the thread, you'll see they never actually investigated the issue. They just insisted it wasn't their problem. They were wrong.
They locked the bug of course, because their feelings are more important than distributing secure software to them, so I have no way of informing them of this. They're just pissed they can't lock my blog and that people are finding out about this issue, outside of their control.
