Support for Drupal 7 is ending on 5 January 2025—it’s time to migrate to Drupal 10! Learn about the many benefits of Drupal 10 and find migration tools in our resource center.This issue came up when I tried to include a "forward to friend" link in a Vertical Response email.
The code from VR is like
<a href="{VR_F2AF_LINK}">forward to a friend</a>
so, when the href attribute gets emogrified and absolutified, the VR token gets totally busted, and we end up with
<a href="http://example.com/{VR_F2AF_LINK}">forward to a friend</a>
which doesn't work at all.
Enews should offer an escape sequence, and since VR uses curly braces (which are invalid URL characters), these are the obvious choice.
Patch forthcoming.

AaronBaumanOK, so these don't actually work like "tokens": if a curly-braced token is found in place of a URL (ie. as a href, src, etc. attribute) the token will just be ignored.
In other words, the curly braces will remain intact -- which are necessary to send to the mass mailer (VR) -- but the base url won't get pre-pended.

apadernoI am closing this issue, since it's for a Drupal version no longer supported.
