(Thunderbird :: Mail Window Front End, defect)

Description

[debuggger]

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; de-DE; rv:1.7.12) Gecko/20050919 Firefox/1.0.7
Build Identifier: Mozilla Thunderbird Build 20051201

While creating a new message Window by clicking on an Browser-Link, a whitespace is shown instead of the german entity "ü".

Example:

a href="mailto:[e-mail]?subject=One ./. Two (Main), AZ: 06-1234&body=Sehr geehrte Frau Testerin, sehr geehrter Herr Tester,%0D%0A%0D%0Ain vorbezeichneter Angelegenheit %0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0A%0D%0AMit freundlichen Grüßen%0D%0A%0D%0ARA Rüdiger Testmann%0D%0Ai.A.%0D%0A--%0D%0ATESTFIRMA%0D%0ASchöne Allee 42%0D%0A12345 Überlingen%0D%0ATelefon:  +49 (0)123 / 456789%0D%0ATelefax:  +49 (0)123 / 345678%0D%0AE-Mail:   [e-mail]%0D%0AInternet: www.testdomain.info%0D%0A


The Name "Rüdiger" is shown as "R diger". Other german entities are displayed correctly.

Reproducible: Always
