I would like to add the following observation as well -

---> org input <---
#+AUTHOR: Jambunathan K\cr\href{mailto:{{{EMAIL}}}}{{{{EMAIL}}}}

---> actual tex output <---
\author{Jambunathan 
K\cr\href{mailto:kjambunathan@gmail.com}\{kjambunathan@gmail.com\}}

The above tex snippet has the effect of getting the "Url Box" wrong.

I was hoping to produce the following line -
\author{Jambunathan 
K\cr\href{mailto:kjambunathan@gmail.com}{kjambunathan@gmail.com}}

Generally speaking, macro expansion in author string behaves strangely.

Thanks,
