linkified URLs in plain text messages include tailing linebreaks

[Bernd Prünster]

am am quite sure this has nothing (not much) to do with encoding, since the behavior is reproducable:
when a plain text messages is linkified, the hyperlinks tend to look like this: http://www.example.com/<br><br>You
if The message is somethign like
"Welcome to www.example.com
You have received this email..."

second issue related to this:
www.example.com is fine,
www.example.com/about/team/Johnny_Walker becomes <a href="www.example.com/about/team/Johnny">www.example.com/about/team/Johnny</a>[whitespace]Walker

i would suggest linkifying everything after http://, www., ftp:// until we encounter a whitespace, if this is done already we seriously need to fix encoding ;-)

We use regular expressions for this, namely:

    const string[] link_formats = {
        "(https?:\\/\\/\\S+)",
        "([a-zA-Z0-9.\\-]+@[a-zA-Z0-9.\\-]+[a-zA-Z0-9.]+)"

[Cris Dywan (kalikiana)]

The solution is to exclude < from parsing. The line breaks turned into <br> are the issue here.
