Hello!

I discovered a "problem" today while reading a mail-newsletter and trying to 
click on an URL....
Let me cite the relevant part of the newsletter (KC KDE):

job there. !hint! You can join the KOffice team (http://mail.kde.org/mailman/
listinfo/koffice-devel) and get some of the fame /!hint!

The nifty URL-highlighting-feature in KMail doesn't work here because of the 
newline character in the URL. I know, there shouldn't be newlines in URLs - 
but they appear in many mails.
Since KMail hasn't really a chance here, I tried the second best thing, 
highlighted the whole URL and klicked on "Open with Konqueror" in the 
Klipper-popup. But the URL still didn't work because this newline got 
"translated" into a whitespace....

Are there any reasons against automatically removing newlines after klicking 
on "Open with..."? If not I will implement this...

servus,
Michael
