Quoted-Printable links dont work

Hello,

since update to Version 52.9.1(64bit), Thunderbird is unable to open Links in a mail which contains quoted printable characters, e.g. "=3D" for the equality sign. If I hover over the link, the cursor is changing but clicking does nothing. Was there a setting changed during the last update, and how can I fix this behavior?

regards, Armin

Are you seeing these quoted-printable URLs in the displayed text of your incoming email messages? Or only when you start looking at message source?

I see it when I look at the source code. The link looks normal in Tunderbird. There is also a "return" (cr) in the URL. Maybe that's a problem too. I don't now. It looks like this:

<a href=3D"

      https://...... ">

in previous versions of Thunderbird this links worked.
