OK.  I just tried the source drop for 5/27 and it seems to work just fine.  Just to 
make sure I wasn't crazy, I retried the 5/22 drop and still had the same problem.
 
Just out of curiosity, what is the rational for requiring the caller to encode a URL 
(as opposed to HttpClient encoding it for them)?
 
Thanks for your help...

        Hi Tracy, 
        There is something very strange going on here, I don't think you're using 
        the HttpClient you think you are.  When you first posted, I used code almost 
        identical to what you're using to test it and had no problems.  I've just 
        tested again with what will become 2.0-beta1 when the release manager gets 
        back and there is still no problem using the code you posted. 

        Where are you seeing the doubly escaped URL come out?  I'm looking at the 
        wire trace to see exactly what is sent to the server and it's sent to the 
        server exactly how I passed it into the GetMethod.  Can you provide the wire 
        trace of your attempts?  Instructions for doing so can be found at 
        http://jakarta.apache.org/commons/httpclient/logging.html 

        I must admit the getEscapedURI() and getEscapedQuery() calls look pretty 
        suspicious, but unless I can reproduce the problem I can't be sure enough 
        that they should really be changed - there's some strange stuff that happens 
        in the URI classes at times and I don't understand it all. :)

        Given: 

                import java.net.*; 
                import java.util.*; 

                import org.apache.commons.httpclient.*; 
                import org.apache.commons.httpclient.methods.*; 

                public class MyGetContents 
                { 
                        public static void main(String args[]) throws 
        MalformedURLException 
                        { 
                                try 
                                {               
                                        HttpClient client = new HttpClient(); 
                                        GetMethod gm = new GetMethod( 
        "http://mail2:80/exchange/tboehrer/Inbox/RE: Test Message.EML" ); 
                                        client.executeMethod( gm ); 
                                } 
                                catch( Exception e ) 
                                { 
                                        System.out.println( e ); 
                                } 
                        } 
                } 

        Since I don't have the URL esaped, I get the following exception: 

        java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Invalid uri 
        'http://mail2:80/exchange/tboehrer/Inbox/RE: Test Message.EML': escaped 
        absolute path not valid 

        If I escape the URL to be: 
        http://mail2:80/exchange/tboehrer/Inbox/RE:%20Test%20Message.EML, then after 
        "parsedURI.getEscapedPath()" (below), the resultant URL is 
        http://mail2:80/exchange/tboehrer/Inbox/RE:%2520Test%2520Message.EML. 

        Just so that I could move on, I changed "parsedURI.getEscapedPath()" to 
        "parsedURI.getPath()" and it seems to work fine.

        Hi Tracy, 
        HttpClient should take only fully encoded URIs so the behaviour you describe 
        would be a bug, however I can't reproduce the problem.  Could you please 
        send through a simple test case showing the problem or at least the source 
        code you're using that experiences the problem? 

        Thanks in advance,

        Using the nightly source drop for 5/22, I am a bit confused as to what is 
        required of a URL when constructing a HttpMethodBase.  If I supply an 
        unescaped URL (that requires it), an exception is thrown.  If I escape the 
        URL, then this class will escape it again at around line 277: 

                    // set the path, defaulting to root 
                    setPath( 
                        parsedURI.getPath() == null 
                        ? "/" 
                        : parsedURI.getEscapedPath() 
                    );
