title: MailMessage is adding two dots for one dot when email is opened in Outlook or other clients
body: <p>I am generating and sending email using C#. </p>
  
  <p>The mail message is html formatted, and everything appears fine just before the Send method is called i.e. there is only a single dot just before aspx in the href URL, but when I open the sent email in Outlook or any other email client, it shows a double dot for a href as in code below.</p>
  
  <pre><code>&lt;a href='http://localhost/xyz/invitation..aspx?invitecode=92EFB482-1792-4BC6-9507-70D2E3F06FE0'&gt;Click Here &lt;/a&gt;
  </code></pre>
  
  <p><strong>My question</strong>: Why would this be happening, and is there any way to resolve this problem like some special encoding for MailMessage.BodyEncoding ? I am using the default encoding (ASCII) for MailMessage.BodyEncoding.</p>
