Imail does do some formatting so any of the http:// links will work as
expected. Imail for some reason does not do the same for https:// links

As a workaround for ssl links, do the following:

http://www.-yourdomain-.com/cgi-bin/redir.pl?dest=https://www.-yourdomain-.c
om/somesecurepage.html

Imail will work with this correctly.  It's a kludge of a fix - but it works.

You will need a basic redirection script something like this...
    # redir.pl
    &parseform(); # available many places on the net
    print "Location: " . $FORM{'dest'}\n\n";
    exit;
