email links in markdown aren't parsed

[perpetualgrimace]

Description

In my markdown file, if I add an email address via the standard syntax <email@address.com>, the app white screens. If I remove the angle brackets, the page renders again.

The console prints out an error that sounds like it's looking for a content file, rather than generating a mailto link:

shared.js?e4aa:33 /Users/jf/JFDev/gridsome-test/content/6-contact/mailto:hello@jamesferrell.me was not found.

we had a similar problem like this using Netlify CMS - we did a quick hack and managed to circumvent this issue by adding a   after the mail link. you could try something like this [hello@jamesferrell.me](mailto:hello@jamesferrell.me )

I think I'm encountering the same issue. I found that wrapping it in quotes works for now.
