Comment (by marybaum):

 Thanks @birgire I appreciate the feedback and good point on it being an
 export link.
   For options I'm looking at;
   "The link to the personal data export was successfully sent to this
 user."
   "The link to the personal data export was successfully sent."
   "The personal data export link was successfully sent."

 Welp. How about

  "Success! Personal data export link sent to `mailto:user at domain.com`."

 Slightly less redundant and more energetic than 'was-successfully-sent'
 and gives user a look at the email address the data went to -- or swear
 under their breath and try again with another.

 If this were copy instead of a string, I'd be advocating for 'the link has
 gone to' or some more active construction, but in a string that's of
 course getting too far ahead of ourselves in the process.
