For what it's worth, if the goal of the "there's an article about this
on our website, but I'm not going to tell you where it is, you're going
to have to go searching for it" emails is to entice us to visit the site,
then in my case it doesn't work.
Out of idle curiosity I might follow a direct link to an article that
sounds mildly interesting to see what it's like, but it would take an
"I really must read this" to make me go searching for it.
It also makes me think less of any organisation making me jump through
these hoops.
I doubt I'm alone in this.
