Comment:

 Hi @sproutchris, welcome to WordPress Trac! Thanks for the report.

 Wrapping URLs in angle brackets is recommended behaviour by both
 [https://www.w3.org/Addressing/URL/5.1_Wrappers.html the W3C] and in
 [https://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc3986.txt Section C of the URI RFC].

 If some email client includes the ending bracket in the link,
 unfortunately there's not much we can do to fix that.

 With that being said, this has been reported numerous times in the past.
 See #23578, #43206, #18493, #21095, #23420, #39742. See also
 comment:2:ticket:23420 for a potential workaround.
