I have created a kind of mini CRM using properties.
Now I need to extract data from the entries to create a CSV file for use
with an external email tool.
I have used org-collector.el to extract tagged entries to a table, on which
I then use orgtbl-to-csv to create the CSV file.
This is working well, except for the property used for the email address.
Unfortunately, I stored this as a gmail link. This makes it difficult to
extract the actual email address using org-collector as follows:
#+BEGIN: propview :cols ((car (s-split " " ITEM)) EMAIL_ADDRESS) :id
"candidates" :match "testthis" :wrap example
the result produced looks like this:
| (car (s-split " " ITEM)) | EMAIL_ADDRESS
|
|--------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------------------------|
| "Ciara" | [[
https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&fs=1&to=ciaraxyz@gmail\.com]]
|
| "Duncan" | [[
https://mail.google.com/mail/?view=cm&fs=1&to=duncanxyz@indeedemail\.com]] |
I have looked at several methods that I found on the web to extract the
email address from the link in the property, but haven't yet found a
solution that I could get to work. Still building up my elisp skillset,
would appreciate suggestions.

I've never used org-collector, but quickly trying to wire up a function
to extract the email part of the text you show, I suspect some of the
trouble you're having is that the value comes in as a vector because
org-propview-collect processes it with org-babel-read. So perhaps
something like this would get you on the right track:
(require 'subr-x)
(defun my/extract-email-from-link (value)
(setq value (format "%S" value))
(when-let ((link (and (string-match org-link-bracket-re value)
(org-link-unescape
(match-string-no-properties 1 value)))))
(thread-last
link
(replace-regexp-in-string
(rx string-start (one-or-more not-newline) "to="
(group (one-or-more not-newline)) string-end)
"\\1")
(replace-regexp-in-string (rx "\\.") "."))))
--8<---------------cut here---------------start------------->8---
#+BEGIN: propview :cols ((car (s-split " " ITEM)) (my/extract-email-from-link EMAIL_ADDRESS)) :id global
| (car (s-split " " ITEM)) | (my/extract-email-from-link EMAIL_ADDRESS) |
|--------------------------+--------------------------------------------|
| "Ciara" | "ciaraxyz@gmail.com" |
| "Duncan" | "duncanxyz@indeedemail.com" |
|--------------------------+--------------------------------------------|

Thanks Kyle, got it to work this way:
#+BEGIN: propview :cols ((car (s-split " " ITEM)) (s-chop-prefix "gmail:"
(my/extract-email-from-link EMAIL_ADDRESS))) :id "candidates" :match
"testthis" :wrap example
| (car (s-split " " ITEM)) | (s-chop-prefix "gmail:"
(my/extract-email-from-link EMAIL_ADDRESS)) |
|--------------------------+---------------------------------------------------------------------|
| "Ciara" | "ciaraxxxx@gmail.com"
|
| "Duncan" | "duncanxxxx@indeedemail.com"
|
Thanks a million!

I think code like this would also work:
#+BEGIN_SRC emacs-lisp
(let* ((url "
https://mail.google.com/mail?view=cm&fs=1&to=duncanxyz@indeedemail.com")
(struct (url-generic-parse-url url))
(filename (url-filename struct)))
(cadr (assoc "to" (url-parse-query-string filename))))
#+END_SRC
