The only foolish question is the one that's not asked, although the answer was only a click or hover away (on your encoded link) Click on your encoded link and see what ends up in your address bar....
Browsers translate the & to an ampersand when you click on the link (or even hover over them). I have used this for years and have gone much further with encoded mailto: links that look like gibberish in the HTML. It's always worked fine.
What does a browser show when you put > or " in your HTML?
