Interestingly, Pluto stops before the colon with your first href, giving a
subject of 'Submitted'.

Robin's version looks as though it would give the whole subject line were
it not for the line breaks, ie, the as-quoted above gives 'Submitted:
Flower Photos', but can't include the rest as a line-break has crept in.

I can demonstrate this by extracting the mailto and editing out the line
break and the quote bit to make it all one line:

mailto:rogerarm@freeuk.com?subject=Submitted:%20Flower%20Photos%20for%20Contributions

That works as expected.
