bug#65902: 29.0.92; emacsclient-mail.desktop fails due to complicated escaping

[sbaugh]

The emacsclient-mail.desktop file fails on my system with the following
error:
"$1": -c: line 2: unexpected EOF while looking for matching `)'

My subsequent mail will fix this also vastly simplify
emacsclient-mail.desktop by adding a new feature to emacsclient to avoid
the need for complex escaping.
