Broken Email Hyperlink in Contributing Guide Redirects to 404 Page

[Mehamoodshaik]

Bug Report

Steps to Reproduce:

1. Go to the Legend Contributing Guide.
2. In the very first section that mentions "Legend General List" as an email hyperlink under "Are you using Legend?".
3. Click on the hyperlink labeled "Legend General List".
4. If you scroll down, in the section 3, again you can find another hyperlink with the same name.

Expected Result:

The "Legend General List" hyperlink should open a mail client with legend@finos.org as the recipient email, or the email address should be displayed as plain text without redirecting.

Actual Result:

Clicking the "Legend General List" hyperlink redirects to a URL (https://github.com/finos/legend/blob/master/legend@finos.org), which results in a 404 error page. This happens because GitHub interprets the email link as a file path rather than an email address.

Environment:

• Project Version: Legend Contributing Guide on master branch

Additional Context:

To fix this, either:

• Change the email hyperlink to a "mailto" link (mailto:legend@finos.org) to open the user’s email client.
• Alternatively, display legend@finos.org in bold or as plain text without a hyperlink.
