Your mailto link seems to work just fine for me, so it's possible that the browser or environment you're using to click it is not properly configured to send you to your email app. Someone on Stack Overflow had a similar question and the only answer there shares some resources that may help you: https://stackoverflow.com/questions/34413697/mailto-link-in-chrome-opens-new-tab
