Hi everyone,

Just (very) curious...

When entering email addresses, you can often type a name in front of the
email address itself, and the mail client knows what goes into the name
field, and what goes into the email field.

I noticed that double-clicking (under Mac OS 9) an email-URL, the first
and last name is lost.
I've often wondered if this was because LaunchURL strips it off, if it's
the email client that does it, or if it's simply the handler that sends
the URL using LaunchURL.

-Does anybody know if it's possible to do an openURL where we get the
first and last name as well ?
(If it's not possible, I believe this should be filed as a bug-report, as
it shouldn't happen to Mac OS X as well).


Love,
Jens
