xolox/vim-shell — Issue #5: Doesn't open URLs from Apple mail.app

I'm running into a problem where the Open command isn't getting the correct URL. I think the problem is that the URLs for message links have a % sign in them.

The link should be:

message://%3cCAC1F077.18CFC%larry.schweitzer@ucsf.edu%3e

Calling :Open on this tells mail to open:

message://%253cCAC1F077.18CFC%25larry.schweitzer@ucsf.edu%253e

Mail doesn't know how to open this due to the spurious %25's.
