-When you save an Email, Mautic checks every link it contains. If a link contains a malformed ``href``, such as ``://example.com``, Mautic blocks the save and shows an error such as 'The email contains an invalid URL: ://example.com'. This stops broken links from going out and disrupting email delivery. To save the Email, fix the link so its ``href`` is a valid, absolute URL that starts with ``http://`` or ``https://``, a ``mailto:`` link, or a Mautic token such as ``{unsubscribe_url}``.
