Well see here's the thing. Let's say I take my email address and just insert it like regular text in the body of text. It's fine, however, you can't just click on it and instantly email someone. The moment this syntax is used:

a href="mailto:ABCNET@comcast.net">ABCNET@comcast.net

The email goes blank and can't be seen, no matter where on the template I put it.

I don't know if your post is being properly displayed, but as it is displayed it is malformed.

it should be: <a href=mailto:"ABCNET@comcast.net"> ABCNET@comcast.net</a>

You didn't close the end, and didn't have quotes on both sides of the mailto statement, although I dunno if the quotes are needed. here it is, and it works:

ABCNET@comcast.net
