mailto links inside a blog post don't work

[wioux]

When blog posts are pulled from eff.org, they are processed so that relative links to other pages on eff.org still work (the link is converted to an absolute url).

sec/app/helpers/blog_helper.rb

Lines 3 to 13 in eb86f4b

	doc.css("a, img").each do |a|
	if a["href"] && a["href"] !~ /^https?:\/\//
	path = a["href"].sub(/^\//, "")
	a["href"] = %(https://www.eff.org/#{a["href"]})
	end
	if a["src"] && a["src"] !~ /^https?:\/\//
	path = a["src"].sub(/^\//, "")
	a["src"] = %(https://www.eff.org/#{a["src"]})
	end
	end

A recent post contains a mailto link at the bottom which gets broken by this transformation.

I would say the RSS feed should convert relative links to absolute, rather than the feed consumer.
