If I enter

$ kmail mailto:email_addr?subject=subject_text

kmail starts up with the destination address filled in but the
subject remains blank. How do I get kmail to fill in the subject?

$ kmail -s "subject_text" foo@xxxxxxxxxxx

For more options:

$ man kmail

Ah hah! I guess I'm tangling with a poor fit between IceWeasel
and KMail. The mailto:... I described earlier is created by the
Weasel responding to my clicking on an email link in a webpage.
I changed network.protocol-handler.app.mailto to kmail in about.config
to get Weasel to insert the addy. Guess I must continue cut/pasting
of subject when launching kmail from the browser.
