Details

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64) AppleWebKit/537.36 (KHTML, like Gecko) Ubuntu Chromium/41.0.2272.76 Chrome/41.0.2272.76 Safari/537.36 Steps to reproduce: It would appear that "To-Reply" within mailto hrefs are not working correctly when opening in a compose message window on ubuntu platform, confirmed across several employees using thunderbird. For instance you click a link like the following code: <a rel="nofollow" class="external text" href="mailto:test1@example.com,test2@example.com,test3@example.com?reply-to=test4@example.com&amp;subject=Example Text&amp;To-Reply=test4@example.com">Opens example email</a> Actual results: When you click the link, the first three emails will end up in the "to:" fields in the compose message window that pops up with correlating subject. The "Reply-To:" field will not have the address from the link nor will it appear in the compose message windows. Other mail clients, such as Mac Mail, are able to translate this href properly, and add a "Reply-To:" field into the compose message after clicking the link. Expected results: test4@example.com should have been added to a "Reply-To:" field in the compose message window that opened from clicking the href link.
