Reasonable confusion. %5C shows it thinks there's a backslash character '\' that it has translated ('man ascii' to see ASCII hexadecimal code is 0x5C).
If you whiz down the email you'll find the line in the text and there is a backslash character, which denotes line continutation and on the next line it begins ' libxml2-2.9.13.news'.
I guess a formatting script somewhere has been very conservative with the line length of the Changelog, causing a genuine URL to be split over two lines, and two sets of anti-spam heuristics have thought it smelt iffy.
That was actually wrapped by the writer of the changelog himself; no script did that reformatting. Cheers, Dominique
