Status: RESOLVED DUPLICATE of bug 278727

(MailNews Core :: Networking, defect)

Description

[Dan Mellem]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8a6) Gecko/20050111

Between Mozilla 1.8a5 (2004112206) and 1.8a6 (2005011116), mailto URLs stopped
working correctly. It correctly handles the e-mail address but any parameters
end up as part of the last e-mail address. This is also seen in 1.8b1.


Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
Click on a mailto link, such as "mailto:[e-mail],[e-mail]?subject=c&body=d"
Actual Results:  
To: [e-mail]
To: [e-mail]?subject=c&body=d


Expected Results:  
To: [e-mail]
To: [e-mail]
Subject: c

d


I've been trying to find the specific module involved but I don't know enough
about the infrastructure. Perhaps bug 231032 or bug 209097 is involved? (Just a
guess since they involve mailto and had checkins between a5 and a6.)

I've missed the obvious "mailto:[e-mail]?subject=b" link in my description and
examples. This also isn't working correctly.
