Do you mean "to make the links in the email itself https://";?

I don't necessarily think it should be WONTFIXed.  I was just pointing out that
if they do visit/attempt to visit HTTP, it should behave correctly.

We still may want to change emails to be HTTPS at some point.  This
particularly makes sense for emails targeted towards logged in users, such as
watchlist and Echo (including talk page) notifications, and email verification.
 This is logical since logged in users are now sent to HTTPS while logged in by
default.

However, there are issues that complicate things. E.g. in blacklisted countries
(China, Iran), logged in users are not HTTPS by default, and there is also a
user preference ("Always use a secure connection when logged in") that can be
turned off.
