    Description

      See attached Excel file, generated from Atlassian's support site, which includes this issue (JRA-7597?). Doesn't matter if All fields or Current Fields chosen, get the same result. Notice how for issues JRA-7596 and JRA-7595, the description has all or portions underlined as a hyperlink, because the issue description contains a link to another JIRA issue, and the Excel output has placed a hyperlink around whole sections of text where the hyperlink exists. Similarly, for issue JRA-7485 which simply has text referring to a sample emailaddress@fakedomain.com.
      It would certainly be up for discussion whether any attempt to include links like this in Excel should be done at all - in my opinion - NO! It certainly doesn't present itself in previous versions - But even if this will a "feature" I'd have to live with, it should certainly only link the appropriate text. For now, I will assume that it was unintentional to produce Excel output with any sort of link in the issue description column.
