Hi, I've had the same problem myself. The link you are using is actually of wrong format. Refer here for reference: http://tools.ietf.org/html/rfc2368
The first mailto: parameter have to be separate by "?" sign, not the ampersand, so this would work: mailto:em...@address.com,ema...@address.com,ema...@address.com?subject=a test subject&body=some test body BR, Ivan -- You received this bug notification because you are a member of Desktop Packages, which is subscribed to thunderbird in Ubuntu. https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/1065309 Title: mailto links with subject/body don't work correctly Status in “thunderbird” package in Ubuntu: New Bug description: clicking on a link in my browser to "mailto:em...@address.com,ema...@address.com,ema...@address.com&subject=a test subject&body=some test body" results in an email window with no subject or body, but the following recipients: em...@address.com ema...@address.com email3"@address.com&subject=a test subject&body=some test body (first 2 are correct, last one has an extra " before the @, and the &subject=xxx&body=yyy) can reproduce this by executing at the commandline as well: $ thunderbird "mailto:em...@address.com,ema...@address.com,ema...@address.com&subject=a test subject&body=some test body" ProblemType: Bug DistroRelease: Ubuntu 12.10 Package: thunderbird 16.0+build1-0ubuntu1 ProcVersionSignature: Ubuntu 3.5.0-17.27-generic 3.5.5 Uname: Linux 3.5.0-17-generic x86_64 AddonCompatCheckDisabled: False ApportVersion: 2.6.1-0ubuntu3 Architecture: amd64 AudioDevicesInUse: USER PID ACCESS COMMAND /dev/snd/controlC1: jbarnett 2955 F.... pulseaudio /dev/snd/controlC0: jbarnett 2955 F.... pulseaudio BuildID: 20121005235924 Channel: Unavailable Date: Wed Oct 10 16:01:06 2012 ForcedLayersAccel: False IfupdownConfig: auto lo iface lo inet loopback InstallationMedia: Ubuntu 10.04 "Lucid Lynx" - Release Candidate amd64 (20100419.1) MostRecentCrashID: bp-a10f6154-5611-4b27-a80e-13acf2120209 ProcEnviron: TERM=xterm PATH=(custom, no user) XDG_RUNTIME_DIR=<set> LANG=en_US.UTF-8 SHELL=/bin/bash Profiles: Profile0 (Default) - LastVersion=16.0/20121005235924 (In use) RunningIncompatibleAddons: False SourcePackage: thunderbird SubmittedCrashIDs: bp-a10f6154-5611-4b27-a80e-13acf2120209 UpgradeStatus: Upgraded to quantal on 2012-10-05 (5 days ago) dmi.bios.date: 10/12/2010 dmi.bios.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.bios.version: F.2B dmi.board.asset.tag: Base Board Asset Tag dmi.board.name: 1522 dmi.board.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.board.version: 36.35 dmi.chassis.type: 10 dmi.chassis.vendor: Hewlett-Packard dmi.chassis.version: N/A dmi.modalias: dmi:bvnHewlett-Packard:bvrF.2B:bd10/12/2010:svnHewlett-Packard:pnHPENVY15NotebookPC:pvr048F110000241920001530000:rvnHewlett-Packard:rn1522:rvr36.35:cvnHewlett-Packard:ct10:cvrN/A: dmi.product.name: HP ENVY 15 Notebook PC dmi.product.version: 048F110000241920001530000 dmi.sys.vendor: Hewlett-Packard To manage notifications about this bug go to: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/thunderbird/+bug/1065309/+subscriptions -- Mailing list: https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages Post to : desktop-packages@lists.launchpad.net Unsubscribe : https://launchpad.net/~desktop-packages More help : https://help.launchpad.net/ListHelp
