I've created a html email newsletter (sending it through campaign monitor) and some of my receivers complain that they get a warning when they're clicking on links in my email.


Warning this web page is not secure...


Is this something that's built into Outlook or IE? The strange thing is that this warning doesn't appear on all email links... just some of them. If it was on all links that would be OK.

Internet Explorer has a 'feature' to warn the user if they are visiting a page that contains 'mixed content' (secure and unsecured items). If the user's connection to their email is secure (For example, using Outlook Web Access) and they click on a link that goes to a non-https page, they will get a warning. This can also happen if you have an https page that has non-https links to images and/or script/css.

Find out if the emails are being viewed over a secure connection and, if so, try to use links that go to https urls.
