Bug Description

I discovered the bug in combination with nautilus-sendto and the "Send email" feature of gaim 2.0beta3, so I guess this bug should be fixed in evolution.

Bug:
If you want to send a file with nautilus-sendto to a contact, whose address starts with a space, evolution crashes.

Steps to reproduce (with nautilus-sendto):
1. Create a new contact in evolution, with an email address which starts with a space.
2. Right-click on a file in nautilus, select "Send to ...", select "Evolution" and the contact with the space.
3. Click "Send", and evolution will start and crash.

Thanks for your bug. The crasher is a duplicate of bug #38599. Another issue is probably that it takes the "mailto:" and the email as different parameters, but can an email start with a space? Anyway marking as duplicate since the crash is the same
