ShilpiBhatt-Oracle

Below is the solution to disable the “view in web browser” link entirely – so anyone who already received any of emails and later clicks “view in web browser” link would see an error page.

For disabling 'view in the webs' link in sent emails follow the below steps:

1. Log into your instance
2. Email Setup -> Email Defaults -> Advanced Options -> Saved Email Settings -> Search for the email you want to disable
3. Select the email and click -> search for deployment
4. It will give you all email sends for this email
5. You can disable them correspondingly.

I hope this is helpful.

Related question - what is the period of time that "View in web browser" link would render properly and does anyone know of a use case scenario where this would be an issue? Also, I'm curious to know what percentage of users click this link?

@brobertson Not sure if this was addressed, but the answer is 120 days/4 months shelf-life. As for % clicked, you can check your own communications via Clickthrough Visual Report.
