Without seeing the source xml or the stylesheet that produced that
output I could only guess at what is happening... 

...and I would guess that you have some presentational whitespace
creeping in from the template that produces it, something like:

<a>
   <xsl:attribute name="href">
      mailto:
   <xsl:apply-templates select="email"/>
   </xsl:attribute>

Which means there are a number of ways to solve this, with the best
being:

<a>
   <xsl:attribute name="href">
     <xsl:text/>mailto:<xsl:apply-templates select="email"/>
   </xsl:attribute>


It would be easier if I didnt have to guess though - others simply wont
reply to an underspecified question.

cheers
