How did you enter the link into the Org file?

The original link

[[message://address@hidden

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://address@hidden

This is a troublesome situation

But up to know I didn't find a solution for it.
