Yes they have. But Mail.app is able to read what it wreaks. When both sender 
and recipient are using the same program, it will un-break the URLs inside 
the recipient's program the same way it broke them inside the sender's copy 
of that bad program.

But almost no other email program will join the two broken halves back 
together, because the internet mail standards documents say that you're not 
supposed to do that unless there are <...> around it.
