 Hi,
 I was having the problem of the reset link being hidden in my emails (and
 visible in the source).  I was using a smtp plugin and the end of my email
 source looked like this:

 {{{
 Someone has requested a password reset for the following account:

 http://mydomain.com/

 Username: myemail at gmail.com

 If this was a mistake, just ignore this email and nothing will happen.

 To reset your password, visit the following address:

 <http://mydomain.com/wp-
 login.php?action=rp&key=hereisthekey&login=myemail%40gmail.com>
 }}}
 So what ended up working for me is deactivating the plugin I was using and
 installing and activating the plugin: Postman SMTP.
 https://wordpress.org/plugins/postman-smtp/

 Now my the password reset link is visible in emails and the end my email
 source looks like this:
 {{{
 Someone requested that the password be reset for the following account:=
 =0D=0A=0D=0Ahttp://mydomain.com/=0D=0A=0D=0AUsername: myemail@=
 gmail.com=0D=0A=0D=0AIf this was a mistake, just ignore this email and n=
 othing will happen.=0D=0A=0D=0ATo reset your password, visit the followi=
 ng
 address:=0D=0A=0D=0A<http://mydomain.com/resetpass/?key=hereisthekey&login=3Dmyemail%40gmail.com>=0D=0A
 }}}

 I hope this helps!
 I searched for a solution and ended up being more confused by the various
 suggestions as to the what the culprit was and how to go about fixing it.
 So hopefully this is a wise solution and I will have no more issues.  If
 someone knows a problem with this fix and a better way please enlighten
 me.

 Thanks!
