antisafelinks 1.1.1

Microsoft Safelinks Annihilator
Unleash the Real Links
Description
AntiSafeLinks is a liberating Python program that takes a stand against Microsoft's "security-driven" SafeLinks introduced in Office365 emails. This open-source tool empowers users to reclaim their original links by removing the suffocating "safelink" wrappers. If you are suffering Microsoft' actions and you want to 1) recover a particular url, 2) recover all the links from a email stored in a local file in your computer, or 3) you keep your mail box as a Maildir format locally, then you can use AntiSafeLinks to neutralize it.
Why AntiSafeLinks?
Microsoft perverts the structure of your emails and, in fact, makes them more insecure by obscuring URL in your emails. These actions typically break multiple URLs that can lie in your email, avoids you to check before entering a URL what is the address it will take you to and, furthermore, Microsoft collects all metadata from you when accessing the SafeLinks website.
This tool has been created with the purpose of recovering all these emails when you actually do not have any other alternative because your company's sysadmins decisions.
Features

Link Liberation: AntiSafeLinks does one thing, and it does it well: it liberates your links from the "safelink" tyranny, restoring them to their true form.
Ease of Use: Simply pass the program a modified URL, an email file, or a Maildir directory, and watch it go to work, effortlessly recovering all original links. You can put it as a cronjob and it will go through all your mail periodically.
Preserves Privacy: No need to worry about your sensitive data being unnecessarily routed through Microsoft's servers. AntiSafeLinks ensures your privacy remains intact and only runs locally. Additionally, AntiSafeLinks does not require any external (Python) dependency to run.

Current Issues

The current version fails to parse properly emails that contain mailing list digests containing mails within the mail. I am still working on how to parse these emails properly. Currently AntiSafeLinks breaks these emails.

How To Use

Modified URL. Do you have a modified URL that you want to recover?

antisafelinks --url "URL-perverted-by-microsoft"

Email file. If you have an email stored locally in your computer as a single file that may contain SafeLinks URLs.

antisafelinks --email <PATH-TO-EMAIL-FILE>

Note that if you want to create a copy of the email, instead of modifying it in-situ, you can add the --output <NEW-FILE> option.

Maildir directory: If you keep your mail account as a Maildir directory locally in your computer, you can make AntiSafeLinks to run through the mailbox periodically (e.g. with a cronjob) calling it as:

antisafelinks --dir <PATH-TO-FOLDER-CONTAINING THE MAILDIR DIRECTORIES>

As an example, I personally synchronize (two-ways) my mail with OfflineIMAP and DavMail. Then I have a cronjob that runs AntiSafeLinks after retrieving new emails. Therefore, when it is synchronized again, all emails have been recovered to their original URL versions, and as such they show up in my Mailboxes.
