Definition of buildresultsurl for dashboard

Hi all

This is driving me crazy for some time and I fail to see what I am doing wrong:

I am running CruiseControl 2.8.4 with the dashboard instead of the JSP.

I want to send Emails for failing builds, pointing to the dashboard URL.

I did a lot of research on the net and my conclusion is:

1.       This is at least in general supported

2.       There is no switch or property to change the layout of the URL

3.       The Layout depends on a parser, looking for the word "dashboard" in the provided URL

While I would have preferred a "dashbordresultsurl", this would work for me. So I tried:
buildresultsurl =http://localhost/dashboard/tab/build/detail/integration

I expected this to translate to something like this:
http://localhost/dashboard/tab/build/detail/integration/20110713132815

But instead I get:
http://localhost/dashboard/tab/build/detail/integration?log=log20110713132815Lbuild.9

This is the JSP layout. But there clearly is the word "dashboard" in my URL. What am I doing wrong?

More information
The idea, that I would have to provide the word "dashboard" in the URL to change the layout is not some lunatic idea of myself, I found it here:
http://jira.public.thoughtworks.org/browse/CC-809

"The hyperlinks output by LinkEmailPublisher are hardcoded to append ? or & followed by log=nnnnnnn. This format does not work with the new dashboard.

I propose a solution which looks for the string "dashboard" in the name and if it is found, a new format URL is output, otherwise we simply output the old format."

I even took a look into the code where it says:

-        if (buildResultsURL.indexOf("?") == -1) {
-            message.append("?");
+        // New dashboard uses a different URL format
+        if (buildResultsURL.indexOf("dashboard") == -1) {
+            if (buildResultsURL.indexOf("?") == -1) {
+                message.append("?");
+            } else {
+                message.append("&");
+            }
+
+            message.append("log=");
+            message.append(baseLogFileName);
         } else {
-            message.append("&");
+            message.append("/");
+            if (baseLogFileName.indexOf("log") == 0) {
+                String temp = baseLogFileName.substring(3);
+                int n;
+                for (n = 0; n < temp.length(); n++) {
+                    if (!Character.isDigit(temp.charAt(n))) {
+                        temp = temp.substring(0, n);
+                        break;
+                    }
+                }
+                message.append(temp);
+            } else {
+                message.append(baseLogFileName);
+            }
         }
-        message.append("log=");
-        message.append(baseLogFileName);
-
         return message.toString();
     }

Obviously I don't do java, so I am a bit lost at how to do this...
