The current email: scheme is not recognized by modern browsers (e.g. Firefox, Safari), so clicking the link does nothing. Replacing it with mailto: (per RFC 6068) makes the link open the user's default mail app as expected.

This is my first contribution to an open source repo, so I hope it's useful! :)
