      Summary

      If an email address has a hyphen and is included in the room topic, only the part that comes after the hyphen is converted into a mailto hyperlink.

      Steps to Reproduce

      Create a room with the email address group-email@example.com as a room topic.

      Expected Results

      The whole email group-email@example.com should be converted into a hyperlink.

      Actual Results

      Only email@example.com is converted into a mailto hyperlink.

      Notes

      This makes it confusing for users who rely on this information to contact teams in case of emergencies. They will end contact the wrong teams or not contacting anyone.

      Workaround

      I have tried escaping the hyphen, putting the email between single quotes, double quotes, ... None of these helped.
