Hi!

I tried to send an e-mail with a prepared subject, receiver and body
using Qt. The mail shall open in the system default mail client. I am
testing on Linux with KMail and Qt 5.5.

This is the code I intended to use:

QDesktopServices::openUrl(QUrl("mailto:?
to=t...@test.com&subject=Test&body=line1%0D%0Aline2",
QUrl::TolerantMode));

The mail window opens, subject and receiver are ok. Unfortunately the
line breaks in the body do not work. I also tried <br>, \n, \r\n but
none of these worked. I also tried other ways of constructing a QUrl
but it only get worse.

It seems not to be an KMail issue because when writing the following
into a HTML document, opening it in Firefox and clicking the link in
the browser, it does exactly what I want (including line breaks in
the body text):

<a
href="mailto:?to=t...@test.com&subject=test&body=line1%0D%0Aline2";>test</a>

 Any idea how to solve the line break problem?

Hi, I just did a quick test on my Linux with Thunderbird and Qt 5.7,
constructed a vanilla Widgets app, pasted in your line "QDesktopServices::..". When I run it, "line1" and "line2" appears on separate lines, ok. Perhaps try upgrading to 5.7?
