Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.7.6) Gecko/20050317 Firefox/1.0.2

When composing a message, I use the insert html function to paste in a page
containing a style section that refernces a background image by url.  Upon
sending, the link detection process incorrectly converts the url into garbage. 
For example:

<style>
...
td#sideimg {
	background-image: url(http://www.nyfos.org/benefits/2005-05-03/image006.gif);
	width: 78px;
	padding: 10;
	}
...
</style>

is converted prior to being sent into this invalid syntax:

...
td#sideimg {
	background-image: url(<a class="moz-txt-link-freetext"
href="http://www.nyfos.org/benefits/2005-05-03/image006.gif">http://www.nyfos.org/benefits/2005-05-03/image006.gif</a>);
	width: 78px;
	padding: 10;
	}
...

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1. open the compose window to compose a new message
2. choose "insert->HTML"
3. paste in HTML containing a reference to a url in the style section
4. send
5. look at what got sent.

Actual Results:  
html to convert the url into a hyperlink was injected incorrectly into the style
section.

Expected Results:  
the url in the style section should not have been altered by the automatic
"convert url's to hyperlinks" process.
