It's very unlikely that Mutt does this, given that it doesn't really
touch the message body text in an email that it gets from an editor,
except for the possible encoding changes.  I've also never heard of
anyone else report something like this.

Can you give us more details please?  What actions do you do exactly?
Can you give us an example forwarded email perhaps with the URL
missing?  What other programs are used to deliver the email?  Can you
track down the message at the various stages and see at which point the
URL disappears?

For Mutt debugging, you can set the $sendmail variable to a script that
looks something like this:

#!/bin/sh
echo "$*" > /tmp/mutt.msg.$$
cat >> /tmp/mutt.msg.$$


... and then you just need to look at the /tmp/mutt.msg.* files to see
exactly what kind of message Mutt is sending out and with which command
line arguments.  If the URL is intact there, then it's not Mutt's fault
for sure.


Regards,
Mikko

This sentence does, in fact, not have the property it claims not to have.
