This problem sounds bizarre to me.

One less-than-obvious conceivable factor that occurs to me is that
some webmail interfaces (looking at you, gmx.com) will point urls in
email text at creepy redirects (presumably so that your email provider
can log what you read).

For example, a link labeled

  http://playomatic.myownsite.me

will point to

  https://deref-gmx.com/mail/client/[Some-Alpha-Numeric-Code]/dereferrer/?redirectUrl=http%3A%2F%2Fplayomatic.myownsite.me

If one of those redirects happens to be broken, through no fault of
yours, then following such links in emails might result in unexpected
behaviour not unlike what you are seeing.

A shot in the dark, for what its worth.
