The downside of a link URL rather than an actual copy of the buildlog is that I can't then use any automated procmail-driven recipes to search build logs for common failures or other such fun.

I can, on the flipside, see that you don't want everyone subscribed to build failures to get a full log, as you'd be generating a LOT of mail that way.

Perhaps a configurable option when subscribing to build failures, off by default, with a blinking warning that "sending the full build log can generate several megabytes of mail PER FAILURE, only do this if you're sure that's what you want and need" would suffice to make everyone happy?

As for urgency, I currently get by with sifting through recent failures on the web UI, which isn't ideal, but it works for now. I'd rather see this implemented correctly than quickly.
