In using a java based email client on WinXP it ends up with
users@global.libreoffice.org as the email address and +help as the subject.
The same client under eCS works fine so it could be the interface with XP and
the client or an issue within XP itself. Apparently Tom also has seen
incorrect parsing. Maybe if the plus sign was changed to a minus it would
work better, I don't know.
