I discovered this flaw in the mimemail module when working with send module in a multilingual site.
In the mimemail.module the function mimemail_html_body() gets called which you ll find in the mimemail.inc file.
Here in the preg_replace _mimemail_url() gets called which will format all your urls in the mail.
But what happens is that the when you have a node http://yoursite.com/fr/node/7 the url gets transformed to http://yoursite.com/fr/fr/node/7
Quick fix: Patch the module and put on line 518 before the url() function:

<?php
$languages = array('nl', 'fr', 'de');//all languages
foreach ($languages as $lang) {
  $path = str_replace($lang, '', $path);
}
?>

Real fix:
Multilingual support in the mimemail module. Should be taken into account where the replace gets called on line 300 in mimemail.inc
