    Description

      NOTE: This bug report is for Confluence Server. Using Confluence Cloud? See the corresponding bug report.

      Problem
      • mailto links work fine when added to a Confluence page
      • using the Confluence Page Gadget to view this same page, the link will instead be directed to address domain.com

      Expected Behaviour is that the link will also result in opening a mail client to send mail to user@asdf123.com

      Steps to Reproduce
      • Create a new page in Confluence
      • Add a link to the page user@asdf123.com
      • Save page, confirm the behaviour
      • In JIRA, add the Confluence Page macro
      • Once displayed, observe that clicking the link does not actually trigger the mail event

      Viewing the link source, we see:

      • In Confluence's page, the working link:
        <a href="mailto:user@asdf123.com" class="external-link" rel="nofollow">mailto:user@asdf123.com</a>
        
      • In JIRA via the Confluence Gadget macro:
        <a href="http://confluence-base-url.commailto:user@asdf123.com" class="external-link" rel="nofollow" target="_blank" data-processed="true">mailto:user@asdf123.com</a>
