 > Who wants to look into the legacy reason for this link being wrapped in
 angle brackets? It's valuable to know what might break with this change.

 It's broken already using the angle brackets in many email clients so if
 neither solution is an actual fix, something else needs to be done.  Is
 there any reason we don't just start using HTML (or mime multipart
 HTML/text) instead of just plain text to get around this issue?  Maybe we
 create a class to more easily create the email formatting for all system
 emails that have links in them.
