It does work this way with the thunderbird binary you get from mozilla.org.

That was a very helpful hint! I looked into the firefox source and stepped on
var mailtoUrl = ... "&subject=" + encodeURIComponent(aSubject)...
and that got me the right idea :-) I'm using Opera, and to make it call
thunderbird, you have to use some script that builds a "mailto" line
and calls thunderbird with that. Now the problem with the blanks in
the subject shows up the way I wrote above when using SuSEs Thunderbird.
According to the firefox code ("encodeURI"), I encoded the blank as %20:
thunderbird -remote "mailto([EMAIL PROTECTED])"
works fine :-) So I guess it happens due to some language stuff that SuSE
is adding to the thunderbird rpm in contrast to the mozilla binary. Anyway,
now I know how to handle that.
Thanks a lot for that helpfull feedback :-)
cu,
Frank
