Confirmation dialog before opening email links to websites

[mozzy]

Steps to reproduce

I wish an option to have a confirmation dialog shown when I click a weblink in Email.

This may prevent that I accidentally open a bad website and my email address gets confirmed there unexpectedly.

The dialog would show explicitly the webserver name where it wants to connect to and the full URL. So the user can decide with this information if he trusts the website and wants to send the URL data.

Additionally there could be an option to not show this dialog if email address is in my address book or some whitelist.

Actual results

Click a phishing or spam email link and URL was opened in browser with bad webserver was connected confirming my email address there.

Expected results

A confimation dialog would be shown before open the URL in browser.

The dialog would show explicitly the webserver name where it wants to connect to and the full URL. So the user can decide with this information if he trusts the website and wants to send the URL data.

Additionally there could be an option to not show this dialog if email address is in my address book or some whitelist.

Additionally the confirmation dialog could have the possibility to click the web server domain name only without full URL. So the user can manually inspect a suspicious website before. And not exposing the full URL sending unwanted data to a malicious website.
