[jira] [Created] (MJAVADOC-527) detectLinks may pass invalid urls to javadoc

Roberto Benedetti created MJAVADOC-527:
------------------------------------------

             Summary: detectLinks may pass invalid urls to javadoc
                 Key: MJAVADOC-527
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/MJAVADOC-527
             Project: Maven Javadoc Plugin
          Issue Type: Bug
          Components: javadoc
    Affects Versions: 3.0.1
         Environment: Windows 10
JDK 8
Maven 3.5.2
            Reporter: Roberto Benedetti


The url of artifact com.sun.mail:mailapi:1.5.5 is http://javamail.java.net/mailapi, so the plugin tests if http://javamail.java.net/mailapi/apidocs/package-list is valid.
That url redirects to https://javaee.github.io/javamail/ which is JavaMail home page, so the plugin thinks the url is valid and passes it to javadoc.
javadoc warns about wrong link.

Maybe checking if the effective url is still "package-list" would be safer.
