Escaping commas in batch file START command?

My below .bat file creates an email to be sent by Mozilla Thunderbird email client. I can't get the commas in the subject= to show up. The cmd line interprets commas literally to mean the end of the subject part. How can I escape them?

I have tried double quotes around the commas.
Tried ^,
Tried ,
Tried ,
Tried ','

@ECHO OFF
SETLOCAL ENABLEDELAYEDEXPANSION
start '' 'C:Program Files (x86)Mozilla Thunderbird hunderbird.exe' -compose to=abc123@abc.com,subject=test, this comma, subject
EXIT
