            Bug ID: 313719
           Summary: A URL followed by a ) is parsed incorrectly in message
                    viewer
    Classification: Unclassified
           Product: kmail2
           Version: 4.9.98 RC3
          Platform: Gentoo Packages
                OS: Linux
            Status: CONFIRMED
          Severity: normal
          Priority: NOR
         Component: general
          Assignee: kdepim-bugs at kde.org

Created attachment 76651
  --> https://bugs.kde.org/attachment.cgi?id=76651&action=edit
mbox file to reproduce the URL parsing issue in message viewer.

If a  maill contains an URL which is directly followed by a ) the URL parser of
the messageviewer causes several troubles:

- The trailing ) is included in the text-higlighting to make the URL clickable
- The trailing ) is shown as part of the URL in the status bar when hovering
the URL
- Clicking on the URL just shows the error message: "Malformed URL http:"
- Right click → Copy → Paste somewhere else just pastes "http:", nothing else

So far I could reproduce this issue only when having the URL followed by )  but
not when using other characters like !#?

Attached is a mbox file which can be used to reproduce this issue.
