I tested going to a https link via gmail. On desktop chrome, it immediately opens the link (and hence passes the link parameters). On mobile it pops up a privacy error, "Attackers might be trying to steal your information" (NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID), which is certainly the right thing to do. Still have to try it on Office365 and Outlook.

Strange, I always encounter `NET::ERR_CERT_COMMON_NAME_INVALID` even on Gmail with Chrome. What's your test setup?
Doh, you're right. I looked at the site earlier and forgot to click on the red triangle and click "re-enable warnings". Mea culpa.

I checked firefox and it works correctly too.
