works  OK.



Judging by these results,  anything other than a mailto://blah........
type syntax  gets missed by both Kmail  and Konqueror when they encounter
such a thing either in a web page or an email text.   They seem to `know'
that the line has to be executed somehow, but also seem to 'think'
that the text in question is the path to an executable.

Supposition:
	Since you say it 'works for you'  when it demonstrably does not work
here then some common component of
my current beta-4  (built from something that was [probably] about the same 
cvs release as the 'real' B-4)  is bust.   If so then presumably it will 
unbreak  on the next go round.  If it does not , then I suppose eventually i 
will go after  it and fix it myself.

At the moment, this problem does not affect me particularly, as I do not
usually  click on mailto links anyway, so if you are confident
that this is not a general problem, then that is the end of the matter
I suppose.


Thanks for prompt reply

Regards, RJP
