Hi reporter, 
unfortunately this report is not very useful because it does not describe the problem well (it's unclear to me how this is related at all to Thunderbird and what to do with the attachment in this bug report). If you have time and can still reproduce the problem, please read https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Mozilla/QA/Bug_writing_guidelines and add a more useful description to this report.

Hi, Andre,
sorry for make it unclear.

We use `windows-1251` at out project. Characters in links are percent-encoded with this charset too.
We detect, that this links are not clickable in Thunderbird. Only links with characters percent-encoded with `utf-8` are working (opens default browser).

I have attached short screencast describing issue and a code of email used in it.

1) Send email with test code (from attach) and correct headers.
2) Open mail in Thunderbird.
3) Click on link.

Actual results:
Nothing happened.

Expected results:
Link should be opened in default browser.

Sounds familiar.
Do you still see this issue when using a current version?

Can not reproduce in current version.
All is working as expected.
Thank you!
