Bug Description
Binary package hint: konqueror
With this code:
<html>
<a href="mailto:
</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.

I can confirm this, but I think that this bug should be marked as Invalid because "the "#" character is not an allowed character as part of an email address as per RFC 822"(found after a bit of googling).
