What is a Clickable Email Link?

In online communication, a clickable email link (usually known as an email hyperlink) is a special HTML link. Unlike standard links that open web pages, clicking an email link automatically launches the default mail client (such as Gmail, Outlook, or local mail apps) and fills the target email address into the "To" field. This simplifies messaging by eliminating manually copying and pasting.
