Mailto links are URIs, so you need to escape all non-US-ASCII characters as defined in RFC 2396. Although web browsers will automatically transpose accented characters for their escape sequence equivalents, Acrobat (or more importantly your email client) won't.

In your first post you can see some of the characters are escaped - turned into % symbols followed by a number. Spaces become "%20", etc.
You have to do the same to any accented characters, so é will be "%E9".
Use something like http://www.albionresearch.com/misc/urlencode.php to do it quickly.
