Hi Michael...

this is more of a bug and/or implementation issue than a usability issue. i'm 
forwarding it on to the appropriate devel list. i don't know if you are sub'd 
to kmail@kde.org, but that's where the kmail devels live ....

Subject: newline in URLs
Date: Thursday 01 August 2002 01:31
From: Michael Hofer <michaelhofer@gmx.net>
To: kde-usability@mail.kde.org

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
