When creating mailto-Links to an e-mail-address on the same domain, clicking on the link redirects to the homepage instead of opening the e-mail program.

Steps to reproduce:

• Assuming your portal is running on a domain like mydomain.com
• Create a simple webcontent with the following content:

<p><a href="mailto:[e-mail]">[e-mail]</a></p>

• Publish the webcontent
• Place the webcontent on a page
• Open the page in the browser and click the link

 Current behavior:

• Clicking the link opens the homepage at mydomain.com/

 Expected behavior:

• The e-mail program is started with [e-mail] as the receipient

Additional Information:

• The problem above does not occur in Internet Explorer 11
• The problem above does not occur when opening the link in a new window (right click - open in new window)

Workaround:

• A workaround is possible by adding data-senna-off="true" to the <a>-Tag
