Description

From https://redmine.gc.cuny.edu/issues/17476#note-19:

Strange update: One of my sites is now sending me e-mail alerts for broken links found in unpublished pages, even though I have the settings set not to check page drafts. I apologize for complaining about the opposite problem, but the system continues to regenerate these emails, so each time I receive the erroneous email, I think that there are new links I need to fix. (I have these links in an unpublished page because I need to store former links/link history there). If this unexpected behavior is something you could look into at some point, I would really appreciate it--and perhaps this info will help with the whole puzzle?

Here is the link to the unpublished page that is sending me broken link checker e-mail notifications https://syellegraves.commons.gc.cuny.edu/wp-admin/post.php?post=7&action=edit&classic-editor

Looks like this issue has been reported to the maintainers: https://wordpress.org/support/topic/links-flagged-in-pending-custom-post-types/

I'll try to find time in the upcoming weeks to identify potential causes.
