Hi StehpenT
I tried sending an Email link with images.zip as a file name but it's not making any link

Not really sure but I think this is something that your browser or email app is doing. I have tried several file types (docx, pdf, txt) but no link is being created on the message part and I even made the name similar

I'm using Outlook and Chrome.What are you using? is your NAS up to date?
Regards

Hello Marc_V
Thanks for checking on this. We are using Outlook , Firefox. The NAS model is ReadyNAS 4312, firmware 6.9.5. We will test using Chrome to create the Web Link and see if it still showing the link on the filename.

The code genrated looks like this - both the icon and the file name (size) come with valid links
<p>Hello, below is a link to the file "test.zip"</p> <table> <tr> <td align="center"> <div style="padding: 20px; text-align: center;"> <table align="left"> <tr> <td style="padding: 0 15px"> <p><a href="https://readycloud.netgear.com/client/dllink.html#t=sniiiiiiiiiiiiiip/test.zip"><img src="cid:sniiiiiiiiiiiiiip"></a></p> <p style="text-align: center;"><a href="https://readycloud.netgear.com/client/dllink.html#t=sniiiiiiiiiiiiiip/test.zip">test.zip <span style="color: #808080">(78.8 KB)</span></a> </p> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </td> </tr> </table>
Who or whatever is interfering with that (in my opinion valid) HTML mail ... comes in perfect in Gmail/Gsuite.- StephenBMar 06, 2019Guru - Experienced User

If he can also look at the raw html, perhaps that would be useful.
