Comment (by benjiphil):

 Same thing when doing a Whois on a user. (Either typing the command, or
 with right click option). Therefore, the mailto link will never be valid,
 as "n=" is added on front of the username.

 I agree that the link should be disabled, in that window and in chat
 rooms. In many years of IRC using, I never saw something like
 username at modem1234-AnyISP.com being a valid mailto address...
