209382 - colon ":" in every word is linkified

Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 183111

(SeaMonkey :: MailNews: Message Display, defect)

Description

[Jari Laaksonen]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3.1) Gecko/20030425
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.3.1) Gecko/20030425

Message window shows text containing colon ":" without space around ir as links.

For example:
- in programming code examples like: class::function()
- in PC path names like: c:\windows\filename
- in Finnish and other languages which have postpositions after abbreviation,
  like: OECD:lla



Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Compose a message containing examples above. Save it to Drafts and open it.

Actual Results:  
When clicking linkified text I got an error e.g. "class is not a registered
protocol".

Expected Results:  
Only texts containing true protocol names should be linkified.
