URL example: https://dev246964.service-now.com/now/nav/ui/classic/params/target/sys_email.do%3Fsys_id%3Df46bb6f5c...


Reason: Receiver's email address = sender's email address.

URL example https://dev246964.service-now.com/now/nav/ui/classic/params/target/sys_email_account.do%3Fsys_id%3D7...


Alternate example (after deleting email address in Email Properties):

Receiver's email address:

URL example: https://dev246964.service-now.com/now/nav/ui/classic/params/target/sys_user.do%3Fsys_id%3D800b174138...


Sender's email address:

email account.png

URL example:
https://dev246964.service-now.com/now/nav/ui/classic/params/target/sys_email_account.do%3Fsys_id%3D7...


Solution: Change receiver's email address to be different from sender's email address.
