Because you have "Field Codes" enabled. Go to Preferences>View, and
de-select "Field Codes". A hyperlinked e-mail address is actually a field,
so when you have this option enabled, it will show you the field code, which
includes the brackets and the mailto prefix; disabling this should get you
what you want.
