           Summary: xdg-email's url_encode: bug in escaping
           Product: Portland
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
        OS/Version: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: xdg-utils
        AssignedTo: portland-bugs at lists.freedesktop.org
        ReportedBy: kevin.krammer at gmx.at


Just finished some tests with xdg-email and German Umlauts in texts like 
subject

For example:
./xdg-email test at foo.com --subject Ãœberraschung

This generates the following mailto URI:
mailto:test at foo.com?subject=Ã%9Cberraschung

Correct would be
mailto:test at foo.com?subject=%C3%9Cberraschung

Seems the first part (Ã vs. %C3) is not escaped correctly

The transcoding to UTF-8 ny iconv is correct (checked by using QString in a 
C++ program to transcode the word)
