I seem to be getting

(<tt>`\cm@example.com'').  `LT</tt> and <tt>GT</tt> are the literal less-than (\x3c)

out of this part in the resulting HTML output, which is probably not
what you wanted to see.

I have a feeling that it might be a better solution to stop using
these pretty quotes.  It's not like we use them a lot and a quick
scanning of "git grep '``'" output seems to tell me that many of
them should be `monospace output`, and the rest (mostly references
to section headers) can be "Section".
