Greeting, Feedburner Group -

Email distributed Feed items (that is, the emailed posts that
Feedburner sends to my email subscriber list) contain broken links to
the actual post.

That is, the blue article/post Title - that should be a link to the
full article post - instead is a bad/short link like x-msg://735/

How can I fix this? As it is now, the email distribution to my
Subscribers is useless, because they can't click back to the full
article.

Your suggestions are much appreciated!

Hi - I can see this is now a very old post but I am experiencing the exact same problem.

This is the link attached to my latest blog post title, once delivered via email:


This is the full link of the page it redirects to:


This is the resulting message on the page:

elizeamornette.com 403 Forbidden Error Page

Can you tell me what the cause of this might be and what the solution is please?

Many thanks

@ Elize Amornett and @Matti Nescio - It took me a while to find out how to remove the utm parameter, but I think I just did it. I logged into my Feedburner account, clicked on the "Analyze" tab, and then on "Configure Stats". I then unchecked "Track links as a traffic source in Google Analytics". Now I hope my readers won't meet a 403 Forbidden when clicking on my Feedburner email link.
