Hi,

 When displaying a message, Sylpheed automagically detects a web site
link (like www.openoffice.org) and displays a link over it.

 In Turkish we use the "in" word as a suffix to the relevant word. So
when you want to say "in www.openoffice.org", it is written as
"www.openoffice.org'da" with a apostroph. Sylpheed doesn't acknowledge
the apostrophe (') as an ending character and puts a web site link on
the apostrophe and suffix too (recognizing as the continuation of the
domain word), which makes the web site link unusable.

 Since apostrophe cannot appear in a real domain name, I think there
should be no harm to add apostrophe to the domain ending characters. It
would also solve the problem in Turkish and similar languages.

                   Doruk
