Description mcas 2008-09-23 16:14:05 UTC 
Version:            (using KDE 4.1.0)
OS:                Linux
Installed from:    Ubuntu Packages

This bug was reported on the ubuntu bug tracker under: https://bugs.edge.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/kdebase/+bug/175152
With this code:

<html>
<a href="mailto:x#y@sample.com">mail
</html>

Konqueror 3.5.6 interprets the email address as just "x", i.e., it drops everything including and to the right of the "#" character. Hovering the mouse cursor over the link shows the bad address at the bottom of the Konqueror window, and clicking on the link opens Kontact/Kmail with the bad address in the To box. This still happens in KDE4.
