Imanh08 you can do this with an image web part. Add your image and in the Link field type mailto:address. It will add an https:// before it as you type:

It seems that chrome is having a bug with mailto, so that's the reason. 🙂

Microsoft Power Automate Community Super User- Well what version? I'm guessing an older version?
I'm tested it on Chrome: "108.0.5359.124" and it doesn't work there. Tested on multiple machines
Webpart works in edge: "108.0.1462.54" and Firefox: "107.0.1". Tested on multiple machines
NicolasKheirallah I was actually using Edge but I am in contact with Microsoft themselves to see what is happening.
What Edge version ? 🙂
You can clearly see it's an browser issue, if you press ctrl + the link, it will just open a tab to mailto:email address removed for privacy reasons instead of prompting you to open your email or opening a new email
