Michael,
many thanks for reporting these broken links. In fact, we had had an earlier report and have subsequently fixed the issue, so these PURLs should now be resolving correctly. To be clear - the problem was not with the PURL system, but with the web-server configuration.
The reason that your email bounced is because you had the wrong address for feedback. The correct address is:
[log in to unmask]
(note that it's .net and not .org)
Thanks again for taking the time to report the issue.
Paul
