Hi hardingam
I have opened a uservoice for you here
https://microsoftteams.uservoice.com/forums/555103-public/suggestions/40756333-render-email-hyperlinks-in-desktop-web-client
It works in the mobile client, but can't get it to place dice in the desktop or web. There ought to be a consistent experience across the apps. Mailto: doesn't work, hyperlinked under formatting doesn't work, html etc.
So would recommend voting to push it up the agenda. Once you vote you will be notified if it gets picked up from Microsoft
Best, Chris

- pspungApr 29, 2022Copper ContributorThanks for opening and posting this, Chris. Does the link now result in a 404 error for you, also? I'd like to upvote this somehow. Thanks, Peter
- pspungApr 29, 2022Copper ContributorIn a recent Teams chat with a teammate, an email address typed in was converted to a mailto link by prefixing with mailto:. So maybe this is moot now?

Thanks, ChrisHoardMVP. I've upvoted your suggestion. Seems an obvious thing to include to me but perhaps you and I are in the minority?
