Ability to use untracked URLs was created by Brendan
In a newsletter I added a "how to" guide, one step included a link for clients to login to their account which is on a different sub-domain.   When clicking this link in Thunderbird a warning is displayed:

The link you just clicked seems to lead to another site than what the link text indicated. This is sometimes used for tracking whether you clicked the link, but it could also be a scam.
The link text indicated that the link would lead to secure.xyz.com.au, but it leads to www.xyz.com.au.

I understand the warning because its a common trick scammers use and may even lower your spam score.  I was thinking it would be good if when adding a newsletter you could elect to leave it untouched by NS Pro.

Hi Brendan!

NS Pro allows you to track link clicks. Such links do not redirect to a different domain. They only change the query part of the link.

You may disable this in the NS Pro Component Options. These are found on the top right of all back-end NS Pro views.

Let me know if you need any further assistance!
