Bug#328978: mailto: for Gnome start-up not supported



Package: kmail
Version: 4:3.3.2-3
Severity: wishlist


This is a crack in the floorboards between KMail and Gnome/Galeon. It
would be nice if it could be fixed.

Galeon (Gnome) wants to start kmail up as 'kmail %s' where %s is
replaced with this sort of thing:

mailto:?Subject=Debian%20Bug%20report%20logs%3A%20package%20kmail&Body=http%3A%2F%2Fbugs.debian.org%2Fcgi-bin%2Fpkgreport.cgi%3Fpkg%3Dkmail

which seems reasonable enough, given that this seems to be how many
websites use mailto: to set a subject (and perhaps a body) - is there a
standard? In particular, it uses this for its 'Send link as...' menu
item.

Perhaps kmail could accept this mailto: format somehow, maybe with a new
'--mailto %s' option.
