Now I see what you want: » and « being interpreted by discount as quotes
(just like ' and "), am I right? This may be a whishlist feature to forward 
upstream.

That is understendable. mailto: is a valid URI scheme, hence it is converted
into an HTML anchor. discount seems to interpret '-links' as an email 
address, but that's normal since it doesn't do any check on the URLs (maybe
another whishlist feature? Not sure if this would be accpted though).

Yeah, kind of.
