How to open email address in default mail client from a datagrid hyperlink.

How to open email address in default mail client from a datagrid hyperlink?

I was trying this for a long time. How to open the email address (displayed in a datagrid) in the default mail client. If you look at this it will seem very simple.
<asp:HyperLinkColumn DataNavigateUrlField="email" DataNavigateUrlFormatString="mailto:{0}" DataTextField="email" HeaderText="Email"> </asp:HyperLinkColumn>


And here is a link that you will find useful "Common DataGrid Mistakes"
