If I do > > (org-open-link-from-string "message://m2k4n46n5p.wl%dave@boostpro.com") How did you enter the link into the Org file? The original link [[message://m2k4n46n5p.wl%dave@boostpro.com]] Is unescaped, but Org treats links as always percent-escaped. What happens is that "%da" is treated as a percent escaped character and unescaped after read from buffer. The link should read: message://m2k4n46n5p.wl%25dave@boostpro.com This is a troublesome situation https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2011-09/msg00257.html But up to know I didn't find a solution for it.
