Status: RESOLVED INVALID

(Thunderbird :: Message Compose Window, defect)

Description

[nao]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; ja-JP; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050311 Firefox/1.0.1

The Perth processing of URL in case URL in the body of mail is bundled with
<>(Fullwidth) is amusing.

[U+FF1C:Fullwidth Less-Than Sign] http://hoge.com/fuga [U+FF1E:Fullwidth
Greater-Than Sign]
(Since a Fullwidth character cannot be expressed, in an English environment, 
it is expressing as [Codepoint:Charactor Name] as Unicode in [])

It is a problem to take [U+FF1E:Fullwidth Greater-Than Sign] for
[U+003E:Greater-Than Sign] and to display as an end of URL. 
Since the following URL is transmitted to a browser 
as a result when this URL is clicked, HTTP404 occurs.
http://hoge.com/fuga%EF%BC%9E

You should make it transmit the following correctly.
http://hoge.com/fuga

In [MBCS], you should not treat [Fullwidth XXX] and [XXX] identically. 
My browser does not recognize [U+FF1 E:Fullwidth Greater-Than Sign] as URL 
by the reason as not recognizing [U+FF1 E:Fullwidth Greater-Than Sign] as URL 
nil why your browser is the same, either.
So, I want to tell you as what should correct this problem. 
Of course, I write this because I am pleased very much in 'Thunderbird', 
and it is needless to say to have paid circumstances to your usual
self-sacrificing efforts.
