In the normal url's (between web page's) we have used &lang= etc. without 
problems.
I have asked a few colleage's if they knew the problem from last year.

They didn't knew the &action= problem but they did knew the &lang= problem!
The solution is to use &lng= or something else instead.

I don't know if it is a W3C standard or just a bug in a lot of mail programs.
