Depending on the mail client, link-like text can be hyperlinked: even a dotted.series.of.parts with no  protocol can be "upgraded" by Gmail, for example.

Can you show the HTML (or text) used to construct this accidental link?

Not just links but addresses, dates and times, phone numbers etc... So it could be your email client or, if you're viewing on a smart phone, it could be one or many apps 'interfering' with the as is email html

Lastly, you may have CSS styles affecting different tags in your email template e.g.

span, p, li, td {
text-decoration: underline;
color: lightblue;
}
