Topic: Inconsistent link URL between internal WE message and sent-out emails

Just discovered that the URL for links within WE's internal messaging and the URL in the sent-out emails is inconsistent. This happens for URL to WiserEarth pages. For example:

 

In the internal messaging it links correctly to the full address like this one. http://www.wiserearth.org/article/f0f08f5e9a3e176f8ff83064d4676471/group/suggestions

 

But showing up in email, the "www.wiserearth.org" portion is abbreviated into ".." (two dots), which renders the link to be invalid.

http://../article/f0f08f5e9a3e176f8ff83064d4676471/group/suggestions

 

What caused this? Was it my fault in referencing the link in the first place, or something needs to be fixed in the way internal messages are translated into emails?

 

Thanks in advance for the answer/fix.

Fix should be on the site now - links for messages should now work.  :)  Please let me know if you come across any inconsistencies.
