I also experienced this issue, and eventually tracked it down to the fact that my link was within an iframe, and my web app uses https. Chrome was blocking it due to this (Chrome would open other mailto links outside of the iframe).

In mailto link not working within a frame chrome (over https), kendsnyder mentioned simply changing

email

to

email

Voila, problem solved. That mailto link now works in all browsers.
