comment_author_email_link() WordPress Function
The comment_author_email_link() function displays the author's email address for the current comment. If the author has provided their email address in their comment profile, their email address will be displayed. Otherwise, a "noreply" email address will be displayed.
comment_author_email_link( string $linktext = '', string $before = '', string $after = '', int|WP_Comment $comment = null ) #
Displays the HTML email link to the author of the current comment.
Description
Care should be taken to protect the email address and assure that email harvesters do not capture your commenter’s email address. Most assume that their email address will not appear in raw form on the site. Doing so will enable anyone, including those that people don’t want to get the email address and use it for their own means good and bad.
