User-Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; U; Linux i686; de; rv:1.8.1) Gecko/20060601 Firefox/2.0 (Ubuntu-edgy) Build Identifier: Version 1.5.0.8 (20061115) Folowing links to IDN domains does not work, though all browsers except Firefox fix it automatically. Reproducible: Always Steps to Reproduce: 1. Send yourself a plain text email with the string http://www.rüdiger-kuhlmann.de/ in it. 2. Open the eMail with Thunderbird; Thunderbird will display a linkified URL. 3. Click on the link with Firefox configured as default browser Actual Results: Firefox will open a new tab/windows with the URL http://www.r%c3%bcdiger-kuhlmann.de/ Expected Results: Firefox should open a new tab/windows with the URL http://www.rüdiger-kuhlmann.de/ as given in the eMail. Opera and Konqueror will silently correct it to http://www.rüdiger-kuhlmann.de/ as %c3%bc is URL-encoded UTF-8 for ü, but Firefox doesn't.
