Creator Email links not working in Mobi

Hi,

I am newly working on mobipocket formats now.

The email links created in html and epub are working fine by opening the email client. However this does not work fine in mobipocket.

The html code is <a href="mailto

tunstall@itpld.lib.il.us">ptunstall@ itpld.lib.il.us</a>

Please advise.

Do not use them. Whether links work or not depends on whether the reader application supports them. Browsers usually support mailto links, but I don't find it surprising that the Mobipocket reader doesn't, and certainly I'd be amazed if the Cybooks (for example) did.
