Package: kmail Version: 4:3.5.5.dfsg.1-6 Severity: normal --- Please enter the report below this line. --- Virtually every mail client I've tested accepts an URL in rfc2368-conform mailto format like
mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]&body=foobody Kmail silently drops the subject and the body part. Only using the actual address. I've only noticed it since KMail is the only MUA with this issue, and therefor is the only MUA not supported by reportbug-ng. How to reproduce: kmail --composer "mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]&body=foobody" and check the subject and body of the mail. Googling for this bug revealed this: http://bugs.kde.org/show_bug.cgi?id=117293 Quoting from http://www.faqs.org/rfcs/rfc2368.html 4. Unsafe headers The user agent interpreting a mailto URL SHOULD choose not to create a message if any of the headers are considered dangerous; it may also choose to create a message with only a subset of the headers given in the URL. Only the Subject, Keywords, and Body headers are believed to be both safe and useful. The creator of a mailto URL cannot expect the resolver of a URL to understand more than the "subject" and "body" headers. Clients that resolve mailto URLs into mail messages should be able to correctly create RFC 822-compliant mail messages using the "subject" and "body" headers.
