Question: Which mail clients capable of spawning a browser *fail* to parse this URL and only see the first line?
It's not so much the receiving client (Netscape 4.x and 7.1 here both see long URLs like your example just fine), but clients that break the URL on *sending*.
For instance, on another list I'm on, the guy that runs the list is a Mac person and runs Apple's Mail. Whenever he sends a message with a long URL, it arrives with *spaces* inserted to break it up.
FTR,that's not Apple Mail, that's his failure to delimit the URL.

As you see Thunderbird doesn't understand this (and this is correct, the space must be encoded with %20 even when using the <url> notation.
