Re: "Resend email" gave me a "does not exist" message

Hah!

Finally I manage to find something that I could reproduce locally.

Seems to be a layer-of-layers-of-unquoting. It would also only happen when
you were at a certain stage of the login levels between the two set of
sessions.

I've pushed what I think is a fix for this. Let's hope it doesn't break
something else in return, but this particular URL now works for me, which
it did not before!

Thanks for your patience!
