It's not actually leaking anything, just *possibly*. As far as I can see, the 
test only loads an external reference from the web, nothing else. It doesn't 
actually test for tracking id or anything like that attached to the url. Given 
that the user has explicitely allowed loading content from the web, this seems 
OK to me.

One thing that I wouldn't expect is the meta refresh to work, emails should 
not be able to load a completely different webpage into my email preview. 
(Which seems to be possible right now.)

Thanks for a useful and interesting link!

Cheers,
