Comment (by obrienlabs):

 It looks like this type of email can be sent out in 2 scenarios that I can
 find.

 1. New user email with a link to access their account
 2. Password reset.

 I can confirm that both are broken for me in GMail, too. When clicking the
 link in GMail I get invalid token. I tested with the thick Outlook client
 and outlook.com webmail and both of those worked fine. Seems isolated to
 GMail. Given how many people use gmail this seems like a good one to fix.

 Your initial patch fixed the Reset Password process with a test user.

 Could you update the patch for the new user email process as well?
