Right, gmail URLs are per-person.  mail.google.com/mail/u/0 is the
mailbox of *your* primary logged-in google ID.  For anyone else, that
URL means 'the message with this hash key in *my* mailbox', which is
vanishingly unlikely to exist; and if it did, it wouldn't be the same
message anyway.

If you want to forward text out of a gmail message, you need to forward
the text, not a gmail URL...
