Params and Link Redirects in Email

Product Support
1

When I create a new email, I’m including the following link URL:

Code:
http://domain.com/push_to_mautic.php?formid=8&email={contactfield=email|true}‍&return=http://domain.com/confirm

When it gets converted to an email for click tracking, it's getting converted to:
Code:
http://mauticdomain.com/r/f0a20...03432?ct=3DY...tzOjY=6InNvd...7aTo4O3=MRhdC...NzM6N=zoiY2...X0%3D&email=3Djane.doe%40=gmail.com%E2%80%8D

When I click it in the email and then check the Click Counts in mautic, the link is listed as:
Code:
http://domain.com/push_to_mautic.php?formid=8&return=http%3A%2F%2Fdomain.com%2Fconfirm

note: the "..." is my own masking/shortening for this illustration

In other words, the dynamic redirect URL seems to pull in the the
Code:
formid
and
Code:
return
variables (the first and third URL parameters), but it leaves the
Code:
email
(middle) parameter outside of the dynamic link, instead tacking it on the end. The effect is that the redirector sees the
Code:
email
variable instead of the
Code:
push_to_mautic.php
script for which it is intended.

Can anyone help explain this bizarre behavior? or suggest a way that I can get the email variable into the url params that get delivered to my php push_to_mautic script?

additional note:
Interestingly, if I switch the order of the params in the URL so that the
Code:
email={contactfield=email|true}‍
param comes first after the
Code:
?
, then the whole link stays exactly as written in the field and never gets transformed into a dynamic redirect link for tracking in the resulting email.
