 Blog post titles with dashes in them are not being encoded properly into
 email subject lines when using url_encode($string).

 For an example, navigate to [https://cashflowcookbook.com/commute-costs-
 save/ my client's recent blog post], scroll down until the sharing buttons
 are visible on the left, and select the Email share option.

 Notice that the dash is not properly encoded in the Subject Line of the
 email.
