Bug Report: First line of PGP encrypted message cut off if URL.
 
When creating a PGP encryted message using 8.1, PGP/MIME off, the first line of text (the top-most line) is cut off if it is a URL. The second line of text and all other lines are included, but the first line is always deleted if it is a URL (such as http://www.yahoo.com). This happens whether the message is plain-text or HTML.

In order to get around this annoying bug, everytime I PGP encryt a message with PGP/MIME off I have to move a URL to another line in order for it to appear.

This is using TheBat Pro v3.85.03.
 
Well, I can confirm that more or less.
Though I must say that the first line isn't deleted when encrypted, it's merely excluded when you're decrypting the message to TB.

When you copy the PGP block to the clipboard and decrypt it there and paste the decrypted to a text editor it's showing just fine.

Furthermore, the excluding of the first line seems to be triggered by the :// part of the URL, decrypting a URL without http:// goes fine, but when you've got a bogus first line like test://test it won't show when decrypted from TB.

Unfortunately I'm using PGP 8.1 too, so I can't say whether it's a problem with PGP 8.1 or with TB. I've tested it with TB v 3.80.06 (the previous release), TB 3.85.03 (the current release) and TB v3.86.03 (the latest published alpha)

I've never run into this problem before, proably because all my messages start with a salution (like: Hi recipient,) that might be a proper workaround for you.

I'll ask some people with another version of PGP/GPG to check this too, just to find out whether it's a problem with PGP 8.1 or with TB.
