[Message part 1 (text/plain, inline)]
It is a longstanding double-encoding bug in mailclient-encode-string-as-url, and 
I installed the attached attempt to fix it.  Please give this a try.  I am 
boldly marking the bug as fixed.

I expect our more-extensive use of curved quotes to shake out other bugs like 
this in Emacs, and it is a good thing to fix them.
