SPR# STER5NL33E - This fix won't allow a BlockSender URL to grow to more than
512 characters.
Workaround: Do not attempt to block more than 14 senders at a time.
Steps to reproduce issue:
1. In Domino Web Access (DWA), from the Inbox, select multiple messages by
holding down the SHIFT key and selecting 14 messages.
2. A new window opens for the block sender with the user name and domain
populated for one message.
3. Either save or cancel for that user name; the window refreshes for the next
user name.
4. Repeat for each message you have selected to block.
5. Attempt the same action again, only select 15 or more messages to block.
Result: Either an error message "Page Cannot be Displayed" occurs, or a new
message window opens. The Block Sender window does not open.
This appears to be a limitation of the QueryString of the URL. The console
logs an Invalid URL Exception and lists UNIDs of the documents for which you
have selected to block the sender. The format of the URL displayed on the
console is as follows:
<date> 07:34:07 PM Invalid URL Exception
[/mail/testuser.nsf/(Rules)/$new/?EditDocument&Form=h_PageUI&PresetFields=h_Edit
Action;h_New,s_NotesForm;QR_BlockSender,s_Unids;77291F7B08871FA585256E5B0001AD23

Since there is a limit to the length of the query string of 512 characters, it
appears that the QueryString constructed with the UNIDs of more than 14
documents exceeds this limit. More >
