Public bug reported:

Binary package hint: xdg-utils

There is a typo in the xdg-email command that means it will not work
with Thunderbird correctly.

This bug means though the composer is correctly summoned the "to" field
of the email is never populated

The fix for this is to change the command as follows:

cal...@callumlap:/usr/bin$ diff -u xdg-email.bak xdg-email
--- xdg-email.bak       2010-05-05 13:43:25.914625390 +0100

     BCC=$(echo "$MAILTO" | grep '^bcc=' | sed 's/^bcc=//' | awk '{ printf

     SUBJECT=$(echo "$MAILTO" | grep '^subject=' | tail -n 1)

The qul is a typo and should be removed.
