Default
Provided you have Word configured to do so, simply typing an email address, the pressing the spacebar or the enter key will turn it into a hyperlink. See File|Options|Proofing>AutoCorrect Options>>AutoFormat As You Type>Internet and network paths with hyperlinks. It's not apparent what this has to do with typing an email though.

To get the same effect (and to insert a table into the email body) using Outlook, you must have that program configured to send the email using either the HTML or Rich Text format. See under Format Text>Format.

Either way, you don't need Content controls or the like.
