[rt-users] RT (2.0.15) doesn't get the mailto: link quite correct

[Binand Sethumadhavan]

Hi,

When an email is forwarded using MS Outlook, the quoted part looks
like this:

-----Original Message-----
From: Somebody [mailto:somebody at somewhere.com]
Sent: Tuesday, April 08, 2003 10:44 AM
To: someoneelse at somewhere.com
Subject: Something

RT inserts a <A HREF="mailto:somebody at somewhere.com]" TARGET=new>...</A>
for the email address. The regex it uses also includes the closing
']' that Outlook introduces, so the clickable URL is not usable (without
further editing).

This patch fixes this minor issue (it just adds a ] to the stuff that
signifies the end of the URL).

Maybe it ought to cater to ')' also. Who knows?
