Do mail links (technically "mailto" links) on other web pages bring up your gmail? I'm guessing they don't. For example, you could look at section 11 of the
LDS.org Privacy Policy, which contains a mailto link. If that doesn't work, then your browser is not properly configured for mailto links, and your problem has nothing to do with the Directory itself.
You can do a web search for something like "gmail mailto" to find instructions. One pretty good page I found was
here; it covers detailed instructions for the four most popular browsers.
