           Summary: Clicking on an URL in an E-Mail message opens the
                    wrong URL in the browser
           Product: kmail
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: unspecified
        OS/Version: MS Windows
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
        AssignedTo: kdepim-bugs at kde.org
        ReportedBy: tr at erdfunkstelle.de


Version:           1.10.1 (enterprise4 0.20091204.1058385) (using 4.2.2 (KDE
4.2.2), MinGW 3.4.5)
Compiler:          gcc.exe
OS:                Microsoft Windows (i686) release 5.1 (XP Professional)

I'm using Kontact for Windows, beta from 2009-12-04, e4 branch.

I received an E-Mail (plain text!) which has a Link to a website inside. When I
click on this address it opens in the browser, but the browser opens the wrong
URL.

This is the Mail message (example from mailman, happens on other messages as
well):

Subject: [Bug 219421] K3b/German: apostrophes in audio patterns should not be
translated
Cause: Post by non-member to a members-only list
===================================================

When I click on the Adress https://mail.kde.org/mailman/admindb/kde-i18n-de it
will ask me for an application to open this address with. I choose Firefox,
which immediately launches 2 windows. One firefox-window opens with the default
homepage, the other one shows an error page that the URL cannot be found. In
the address bar of firefox I see this URL instead of the correct one:
http://mailman/admindb/kde-i18n-de

A similiar error happens with Internet explorer, which tries to load
c:///C:/mailman/admindb/kde-i18n-de instead.

It seems, URL handling in the email message window is not working correct - it
is beeing detected as a local URL instead of a http(s) url.

Cheers
Thomas
