MailTo link in Razor

Question

How do I make a mailto link using Razor?

I\'ve seen Html.MailTo, but when I try @Html.MailTo nothing comes up.

Thanks!

The mailto helper is a part of the 'mvc3 futures' project.

The below blog will give you more information on mvc3 futures as well as the link to get it. I believe that it is also available as a NuGet package.
