[Bug 291847] Re: xdg-open mangles mailto: urls to ///foo@xxxxxxx

I am now seeing this problem with xdg-open and xdg-email, but not gnome-
open (no extra slashes added). As bug #294233 discusses gnome-open, this
one is not a duplicate and should be re-opened and fixed.

Running xdg-open 1.1.0 rc3 on Ubuntu 15.10 (dev).

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: xdg-utils

  When you pass xdg-open an url such as mailto:foo@xxxxxxx, when the
  email client is opened it displays ///foo@xxxxxxx as the email
  address. xdg-email seems to suffer from the same problem.
